My young pair of Parachromis motaguense 'Red Tiger' F1 recently bred and their fry became free swimming so I took a video and a few pictures.

2 rubbish videos of my young T.helleri F1 from 'Rio Chacamax' this was their second spawn from the group, but the first successful spawn. In the past I have struggled to keep T.helleri like many other people, so I am very happy to succesfully spawn this rare gem. I am currently raising a small number of fry from this very spawn.

Excuse the poor video and algae on glass!

Here is my shoal of Jaguars!

A quick video of my wild caught Peruvian pair of exCichlasoma festae 'Rio Tumbes' also know as Red Terror Cichlids. I added a yellow light to take this video, as the normal light was too dim, giving the fish a more yellow appearance.

Adult pair of Parachromis Motaguense ''Red Tiger' the female is wild caught and the male F1.
The fry are only on their 2nd day free swimmers.

My newly acquired Archocentrus centrarchus pair spawned in their new home, in the video you can see the unique parental control behaviour of the parents sticking the wrigglers to objects, in this case the underside of a piece of bogwood.

Here is video of my wild caught Rocio octofasciata aka Jack Dempsey cichlids. The fish in the video are from Cenote Aktun Ha which is also known as Cenote Car Wash which is located in the Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico. They are protecting wrigglers in a coconut cave. Also in the video is pictures of the Cenote when I visited and another species of cichlid found in the same Cenote.

Here is a young pair of Cryptoheros spilurus which suprised me today with free swimmers, I noticed the breeding dress but didnt see any eggs or wrigglers. They are a small growing central American cichlid which have a beautiful breeding dress, a underated CA cichlid in my opinion!

Another video from Cenote Cristalino, Yucatan Peninsula, Mexico. Mainly containing a species of 'Mosquito fish' the Gambusia yuctana, also featured in the video, Rocio octofasciata aka the Jack Dempsey cichlid and a catfish species Rhamdia guatemalensis.

Thanks for watching.

My Wild caught pair of exCichlasoma festae aka Red Terrors have spawned, you may not be able to see, but the eggs are in the terracotta pot, there are a lot of eggs, hopefully this spawn will be bigger than the last of around 100 fry.

Sorry about the background noise!
