I have a question about leaving fry with their parents.
I have read in a few places that many apisto keepers can leave their fry
with the parents (mother at least) for about a month. I would like to know
what type of routine you have concerning how long you keep new spawns with their
parents.
I suppose the main concern is what will the parents do
when they are ready to spawn again? Would they be ready in less
than a month? If so, will the parents tolerate the older fry in the tank
(like a few other cichlids, L. brichardi for example)?
I ask because my panduro's spawned about a week ago in a 15
gallon. I will have to do some rearranging with my tanks
before I can move the fry. I just wanted to gauge how long I might
have before I have to move them.
Thanks for any comments.
Daryl
