Vieja Melanurus Spawn!

Are they alone (i.e. they can raise their spawn) or in a community?

Very cool fish!

Not always. Parental instinct can turn into predation or territorial instinct at a moment. Parental instinct tends to weaken over time and specially when the parents are ready to spawn again. I have CA that leave the fry alone for months, then one day the fry population began to thin out. If you want to grow out the fry, remove a few from the parents after a few weeks.

Great news, Rich! You don't see melanarus all that much.

Will do, Pete! Thanks, D-money! Fingers are crossed that they hatch, and I can save some of the fry!
