[GSAS-Member] Green Texas cichlids (herichthys carpintis) spawned

[Matt Staroscik <matt@wrongcrowd.com>]

I found fry this morning! This is the second or third time they have 
paired up, changed into breeding colors, and dug up the plants--but the 
first time I have seen fry. I figured I never would since I do 
absolutely nothing to make the water suitable for cichlid breeding. In 
fact I use RO/DI water for changes so it's about as far from cichlid 
water as you can get.

I am planning on letting nature just take its course so I doubt that 
many of the fry will survive. If anyone wants some to raise, you can 
come get them this weekend, or I will bring them to the meeting.
