exCichlasoma festae pair with fry in LFS display tank

[fvelasco]

From The Fish Gallery's (Dallas, Texas) 3,000 gallon display tank, a video of a stunning pair of exCichlasoma festae tending their fry. I'm told the pair regularly spawn in this community aquarium containing many large New World cichlids, but the fry never manage to survive.

I've only seen that display tank once but it is awesome. The festae didn't have fry when I was there. Thanks for the video!

Man I just love Red Terrors one of my favorite fish. I have never been able to have a great colored pair like those. Everytime i have ordered them I always got the urupthalmus cichlid. I wished I knew someone close to me that had a pair with fry I would drive to get them
Thanks for sharing
