Hi all,
My borelli frys are barely 3 wks old, and now their parents are at it again!
They've just spawned again today, and the female is jealously guarding her new brood of eggs. When the frys go too close to her nest, she'd chase them away vigorously. So far, no harm seemed to have befallen these frys.
Now, my problem is, the tank is too heavily planted for me to retrieve those 20 odd frys, which are themselves dispersed all over the 20 gal tank. If I leave them inside, I was wandering if the aggression from the mother would escalate towards these frys, which are nearly 1 cm on the average.
Anyone had different spawns co-existing within the same tank, would you like to share your experiences in raising diff. broods together?
Cheers,
Kenny
