Dave, If this is the case, how come it doesn't happen with apisto's that we remove the fry on. Sometimes I will remove the fry as soon as they are free swimming and other times I let the parents raise the young to adulthood. Both sets of fry have spawned equally as well. I have never done it with rams or past 2-3 generations though. Kathy On Thu, 6 Apr 2000 Apistodave@aol.com wrote: > They won't raise they're young because they weren't taught how.
