Do you have to scoop all the babies out or keep them in the tank ?

[@terracegardening786]

Thanks for sharing this useful information that is of great help to immature cichlid keepers like me.
Btw pls help in sharing whether the female holding eggs or fries need to be isolated from the tank especially when its community cichlid tank

[@JJGills]

I usually isolate the female because I need all the babies for business. But if you don't need more fish, you can let nature do its job and maybe a couple will survive

[@Kaboom317]

Thank you for the video. Do you remove the fry once she spits them out or do you leave them in the breeder tank? How does that process work.

[@JJGills]

I leave them in a grow out tank until they're big enough to sell, but you can leave them with their mother and she'll take care of them. Just have to watch out for tank mates eating them

[@amandaadams4425]

Is it likely the other fish will eat them ? Mine just did exactly what the video shows so 3 weeks here we go
