Burek Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 are they in the tank by themselves? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ducksta Posted December 3, 2004 Share Posted December 3, 2004 I cant say for sure but many of the eartheatersare delayed mouthbrooders. Meaning they dont pick up the eggs immediately, rather only after a couple of days. They then swap mouthbrooding duties between the pair so they can both feed. You should really buy that Eartheaters book by Thomas Weidner Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anchar Posted December 4, 2004 Share Posted December 4, 2004 Yep, they are substrate spawners that take the newly hatched fry into their mouths. It's very cool to see them swim between parents' mouths! merjo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
