I am really impressed by the parenting skills of my Kribs. First, let me say that besides my BN plecos and my Rainbow Cichlids, these are some of the most prolific fish I've owned. So, seeing as I still have tons of fry from my last batch AND there are others also breeding Kribs in the club, I didn't really feel the need to raise any more spawns.
So, I put them (1M, 3F) in my 4 ft 55 gal that already had several other somewhat larger fish growing out in it. 3 Heckelii, 5 Orange Krobia, 1 pr of Jewel Cichlids, and a few other random catfish.
Well, I had noticed that the Kribs had spawned last week. Big deal...I figured the Heckelii and Krobia would have a nice snack. Not so. Today, the 2 parent Kribs are out with a good portion of their spawn grazing. Everyone else is cowering in the right 1/3 of the tank.
I'm impressed.
