Cichlid fry food.

Will rams and other apistogramma eat the others fry? I was thinking of adding some guppies to my apistogramma tank

It'd be best to keep them in a breeder box, that way they won't eat a months supply in 2 days, they'll just keep eating. .

I have 12 apistogramma in my tank. Will the fry be too much food for them?

I've never kept guppies so I don't know how many they usually give birth to. I've got german blue, electric, gold and Bolivian rams. Then a mix of apisto barlowi and agazisi. Not sure on the sexes of the Apis though. I love how they seem to have a very good balance of aggression

Yea, i guess the trick to keeping them together is big numbers to break up individual aggression, careful with guppys, poor stock can get your pistos sick.. maybe get some nice tiger endlers? They look great and bang out fry like a machine..
