Hello, Bill,
no, I don’t think I have more than one batch of fry. I had already recognized the fry before but made only bad photos then – so I couldn’t make the birth announcement earlier, at the right time.
I think now there’s another clutch in the cave. Normally the female is not to be seen, she is hiding in the back of the tank, while he guards his cave and surroundings near the front. But yesterday she was there, with a rounded belly, and visited him in his cave…………..
I don’t look into the cave very often to leave the fish undisturbed but I had the impression of only small clutch size, about 20 eggs or so. You have to keep in mind that the fish are still young, the size of the clutch might increase in the future.
