Hiya everyone,
So I noticed the other day, my texas cichlids were in breeding colours. Today they have a nice batch of fry up at the front of the tank, and are doing a great job of chasing everyone else in the tank away.

Nice!
How many fry are there ?
What other fish are the parents defending against ?
There are about 100-150 fry in the tank.
The parents were doing a great job defending the fry from a variety of other centrals - synspilum, centrarchus, salvini, cuban and a few other. I decided to build and add a divider in the tank to give them a bit of a chance. Now it is just the female and the fry as the male dashed to the other side of the tank when I was installing it. He is now making a nest with the other female in the tank.

Hi Jody,
how are you? just wondering if you are willing to sell a few texas cichlids and how much? pls. message me
note: i'm trying to get some male texas cichlids maybe two or 3 if i can
thank's
Hi cisaisle,
Unfortunately, all the texas fry were able to sneak past the divider and were eaten in the end.
While they have shown some starts of breeding behaviour, they haven't spawned again for me at this point.
