    Its a mixture of the mother/father eating them, and other fish in the tank...which is why I want to seperate them.

    Fry suggestions

    I dont think they are mouth brooders... From the few times they have laid eggs and the babies are free swimming immediately... The mother and father do round them up in their mouths, which might make it difficult to net them out....

    Fry suggestions

    Im debating on removing all the babies from my tank to house in a small 2.5 gallon kids tank... my problems with previous litters has been other fish eating them. I do have a couple questions. The fry are albino convicts.. (they do breed easy) What should they eat? Ive read fry go for flakes...

    Combining food

    I mix mine. I have mostly cichlids, and I use medium cichlid pellets for them, but for smaller fish that cant fit the pellets in their mouth, and the other fish in the tank I use a mix of tropical and goldfish flake..... They all seem to like it.

    2X4 or 4X4 for 55 gal stand??

    Ive read up a little on some DIY stands, and heres my 2 questions. Ive seen some use 2X4's and some use 4X4's ... which should I use for a 55 gallon? The price difference is a decent increase to 4X4s . Ive also seen 1 article where a builder used L brackets when assembling... Or are long wood...
