Blue ram babies

[Ajm007]

HelloI just turned on the lights and realized my rams have laid eggs and they are wiggling. I have a community tank with discus, rams, and tetras. What do I do now???

Now you give the babies daphnia and baby brine shrimp. When they're good sized send them all to me. Kidding. I want some pictures when they get bigger.

If their first time, the success rate will be low. The babies may need to be moved to another tank if you want the best success rate. The parents may eat a few and will try to protect them from other tank mates.

Best to remove the eggs to a separate tank. The other tankmates might stress the parents to the point of eating the eggs.

Good morning,
The parents did a good job of protecting them but they were eaten once they were free swimming. Next time I will remove.
Thank you all for the advice
