Baby apistogramma cacatuoides PICS

[smoq]

I saw one of my female Apisto started to get aggressive and kind of defending one spot of my tank. That could mean only one-EGGS! I was right, mama is defending it's brood. I can transfer babies to a spare tank because I have baby rainbowfish there already, so they have to stay in the display tank. I hope they'll survive, their mother is a good parent and keep all the fish (including 5x bigger discus) at distance. I feed them microworms. If they'll make it, I will be releasing them for public

Here's pics

Bring them to the swap, I hope by that they should be OK travel.
One lone parent other guarding against even flowerhorn 20 time bigger!


During peace time, are the apisto aggressive towards other fish?

Do you have the picture of the parents?
