They are just almost finished absorbing their yolk sacs. I can tell Dad is having to work a bit more to keep them herded back in there the last day or so. They were laid on August 12th .
Once again, nice pic and well done. If I could only get my male to stop kicking his eggs we could both celebrate, but for the moment you're partying alone.

Impossible only means that somebody hasn't done it correctly yet.
I've probably tried to take pictures of fry in caves 300 or more times. There's always such a huge variance and lack of light the pictures are just terrible. I just thought this one was too cute, where you can see them peeking out around him. He's become very good at keeping them herded in there with him. Very rarely do any get out early now.
Finally having the fish start spawning again after basically a more than year and a half hiatus isn't exactly successful, IMO .
Wow . That pic is amazing. I love your daddy and baby pics. I saw the one of your L260 with his fry too, very, very cute.
