4 week RT x Cobalt Fry

[Pat_in_NC]

Its these babies 4week birthday (from free swimming) and they are still doing well--haven't lost any since their first week (lost 2 out of 45). They are eating live blackworms and frozen formula one and getting 2 80% wc a day. They seem to be growing quite well--although not quite as fast now as during the first two weeks.

I removed Dad at the 3 week mark into the community tank which is next to the baby tank. Amazingly he spends all of his time at the glass next to the babies tanks and chases any other fish away! What a devoted father!

Anyone else seen this behavior?

Here's a pic of Dad "watching" the kids in the tank next to his.
