  • How old were they when you let them back in?

  • @shanjith1 I WAITED SEVERAL MONTHS UNTIL I KNEW THEY WERE TO BIG TO BE EATING. AT LEAST 4-6 MONTHS MIN.

  • I think it's cool that you still answer questions about your video even though it is a few years old. Thanks!

  • @BusaFalconer HEY THANKS I DONT GET A LOT OF COMMENTS SO ITS NOT HARD FOR ME TO ANSWER THEM. BUT WITH THAT SAID I HAVE HAD QUITE A FEW THAT I HAVEN'T ANSWERED JUST BECAUSE I'M TOO BUSY.

  • do yellow labs care for the fry after they spit them out. like if another fish tries to eat them will they chase it away? just asking because one of my female yellow labs has some fry in her mouth (not sure how many but i can see some moving around). i have no idea how long they have been in her mouth or if they have been out yet. i noticed in one of your comments if the cichild hasnt had fry before you should strip them. i cant do that, will mine spit them out

  • @wolverine1865 so what, the mom will not eat them most of the time. but if she gets pissed no telling what she will do. other fish however will eat them. she will spit them if you leave her alone long enough, but some will get eatin. they hold for a little over a month somtimes a little longer. if its her first time have babies, and you want to keep as many as you can you may want to look into striping her.

  • I found a little baby fish in my tank the other day and the day after my fish died......is it possible it died because of the fish inside her mouth? I thought I had an all male tank.....lol

  • males have spots on their lower fin by their tails females dont might have very little very small males are bigger in size than females males have longer upper and lower fins than females . I dont strip the mama instead I move her to a 10 gallon tank by her self , she will release the babies when she realizes that there are no other fish that will eat her babies works everytime after a day or few hours I move her back to the big tank fries grow up happy mama is happy everyone is happy

  • I just did the same with one of my yellow cichlids before i watch this video lol its hard but some times you have to do it :S

  • How can you tell if it's a male or female?? I'm going to be getting some soon and i want to breed them.

  • mmm ink

  • i looked at my tank today and noticed to small frys. what should i do?how can i tell who the mom is and if she will birth more?
