what are you going to do when they grow larger?

THANKS GUYS...........
Iam going to cry when they grow, no serious i have a list as long as your arm for people who want them:nilly:
 
well done mate, your home and free now , no reason that they will not all fully develop now , also keep eye out for more eggs in the comming weeks , they seam to be very similar to pulchra and they have been know to spawn again after a few weeks and it is not unnown to have 3-400 fry in the tank at diferant sizes. they do not seam to eat each other.

cheers col
 
They do not seem to attack each other, noticed some are bigger than others...They seem to like the deshelled brineshrimp eggs and micro-worms, but when you want them they go then swim away, but must be eating as food is gone after a while and there still alive, was exspecting ravinas pigs, but there like parents, caught one sneaking up on its food<a deshelled brineshrimp egg\>and attacked...hehe..
 
I can remember reading once that as the young mature before they swim off, they help the parents defend the young smaller than themselves.
 
sounds good, lets hope they do this, i have more pictures so hopefully will upload them tommorow, all seems good.
 
UPDATE..............

Heres the female with some fry
