Aquarium Advice Newbie
My name is Justin, I am 17 and I live in Trinidad & tobago in the Caribbean... On Sunday I bought a pair of blue ram cichlids and introduced them to a 40 gl. community tank which has 3 goldfish, a few tetras, a pair of loaches, sum zebras, etc. earlier today I realised that the cichlids were burrowing in the sand, though I found this suspicious, I didn't really worry about it. Later in the evening, i noticed them being aggressive to the other fish, and when I went to investigate, I noticed lots of lillte brown eggs on one of the ornaments on the aquarium. I was worried about the other fish and didn't really know what to do(about if the other fish would eat them). So a while after I put the cichlids with their eggs in a sepparate tank. Was this the right thing to do? Should I have put the parents with the eggs? Is there anything I should know about how to raise the eggs? Whe I looked up about it on the net, they said that the eggs usually hatch in 3 days...What should I do?
