Discus Fry Swarming

Posted by Sarah on October 19, 2008

Jeff just went downstairs and freaked out because he couldn’t see any of the discus fry.

Finally he called and said they were on the mom!

Yay!

This is the first time we’ve seen them attached to the parents.

In all the pictures the fry are just sticking on the parents sides but there were about 10 fry swarming around the female, and one on her side.

They looked like a bunch of bees flying around and over the female.

It looked so cool!

I’m still scared that the adults will eat the fry if I watch them to long so I try not to go down there too much.

Jeff is trying to figure out if we should leave the parents with the fry, or move the parents or the fry to another tank.

I told him it’s up to him.

I’m so excited.
