Thanks for checkin out my video Father Fish!

Ive been keeping aquariums & fish for decades & I have never witnessed this kind of behavior before. Kind of strange. Stuff like this really makes the hobby interesting!

Oh yea it was very strange!

Fish knapped! Haha, that's so weird. Good catch

Brilliant to see this. Great Video.

Aww the Paratalapia is being a great mama! : ) Very pretty fish with great parenting instincts! Love that you have a Madagascar aquarium! 👌

The first time I saw my EB Acara move their fry, I was horrified! Then i was like, "Oh....I see what you did there!"

Excellent!!

What a wonderful world!✨

I thought so too! :)

Keep us posted to let us know if they continue to free swimming. It’s commonplace for many fish to even eat their own offspring so this is really unusual.

The Starry Night has continued protecting them, but it probably won't be able to find off the other fish forever. :(

since you asked, this vid [George Mavrakis Super Amazing! Found A Lot Betta Fish, Goldfish & KOi Fishes in Rice Field Farm] talks about a breeder who routinely take the eggs away from bad parent discus and gives them to an ugly parent male discus who is a good father. apparently the beautiful parents are too high strung to raise their own babies. start the vid at 9:40.
