HOW TO: strip & grow out African Cichlid Fry! | Hints & tips

[@rickhickman2730]

How long did you keep the fry in the hang on boxes before they all went into the 33?

So funny, we call these Bobby pins in the USA. And I use one to strip my females. 😂 I bought some tumblers that have an air stone on the top and a sponge filter on the bottom. It’s nice because I strip into a brooding box, then just dump into the tumbler. The water flows though the bottom due to the filter

Love your video, im a cichlid breeder myself, 1 question, whats the name of the tumbler you are using?

[@cichlidscape]

Thanks! It’s a Ziss tumbler. The links for it is in the description👍🏻

Hi there I want to start breeding cichlids to sell I don't have a high budget so I want to start of with 3 females and 1 male Will this be fine and do they have to be the same species

My peacock and African cichlid had babies and i saved 5-10 from the filter. They're in a water bottle floating in the tank. How can i save them and keep them?

[@cichlidscape]

You can either put them in a smaller tank or get a fry net/container from a LFS. If you don’t have a spare tank, that’s what I would advise👍🏻 good luck!

Thanks John. Fry are growing out really well👍🏻 the setup is actually even better now….I’ll show that on the next video! Thanks for watching

[@Ashleyapples]

what kinda food do you feed them? \

[@cichlidscape]

You can use fry food or simply crushed up cichlid flakes. They will eat those too👍🏻 they also like algae wafers I’ve found. Gives them a food source for a little longer you know👍🏻

Good day !

[@cichlidscape]

Always a good day saving fish jay👍🏻 I’m glad i caught them when I did as the bigger fish in the tank would have snacked on them once the mother released them. Thanks for watching!

[@rynethewoz1713]

You don't need a bobby pinn to do it just catch sake in a bowl in water and the babies will come out

[@cichlidscape]

Yeah I’ve seen the shaking method. I just prefer this way. Personal preference I guess👍🏻
