Michael,

Hi congrats on the fry.  I always fed our fry baby brine 3 times a day.  
Left mom in for a few months until the fry was bigger but what I usually 
do depends on the parents.  I have some apisto moms that can raise the 
whole brood and others that eat them right away.  So I have learned each 
fish and what I can do (often at the cost of a batch of fry).  With some 
moms I remove them within the first month others I don't at all, the 
whole spectrum.  With my cac.  removing the male was the best thing 
(pretty obvious to most people 	 guess)  You're feeding them well, I 
wouldn't guess that you would have any problems.

One thing I do is look and see if the fry start disappearing.  And is 
they do I will pull the mom.

Good lck, and let me know how it works.  Always like learning new stuff.

Kathy
