Aquarium Advice FINatic
I have Kenyi Cichlids in my 29gallon tank. I started with 2 females and one male. I wanted to get 2 more females cause it is better for addression issues but I could never find the exact same type at any of the LFS. Then one day a year back I had a temperature issue and one of the females died. I purchased another but he never grew and I think the issues is that the younger one is actualyl a male that will not turen yellow because he is scared of the other male.
To my point. I recently noticed that my blue female was acting a bit funny and not eating much. I watched here and she lieks to hide but I think I might see eggs in her mouth. I can't be 100% but her behaviousr and the fact that she does not eat leads me to beleive that she could have eggs in her mouth.
My question is this: What do I do from here on in? What water temperatures and parameters shoudl I maintain?
And also when the eggs do finally hatch what do I do? Will the other fish eat the newborn? Do I need to get them out with a net and put them in some type of protected area or a different tank alltogether?
