Thanks guys...and yes, I'll be selling them once they're big enough.

I hope you keep posting pics as the fry get older, BV! Those are great looking fish

Thanks guys!
Sorry I haven't replied in this thread in a while.

I'd love to help out everyone who want some rainbow cichlid juvies, but sadly I only have one left. Yes...only one sole survivor out of the whole batch of fry. The parents got a 'divorce' and I ended up moving the one that was getting picked on in the hopes that the remaining parent would keep looking after the fry. Big mistake...ended up eating most of them. Really I should have just moved both adults out of there at the first signs of problems (i.e. 'divorce'), but it's too late now. I'll know better for next time.

I'll try to get a pic up shortly of the one little juvie I have left...he/she is really cute!

[jcpaisley]

what a cute little fry! And the coloring on the adults is beautiful!

 

[superchode]

aww shucks. I guess I'll have to start checking petworld \ petland, etc. for some juvies.
or maybe I'll get rams instead.

Cute BV!! I now have another batch of babies *SUPERSMIL and they just became free swimmers today

Dad with babies (Mom was on a chase, LOL)

The parents were just out of the pic in these. Such a pain of a shot to take, LOL!

 

[Big Vine]

Awesome, congrats...nice pics too!
I love the intensely-watchful eye up in the corner of that last pic, lol.
