Just got 9 RTM fry from @lloyd378. These are parachromis motaguensis, or Red Tiger Mota (RTM)
This will be kind of tough call as to what to keep because the female of this species is absolutely gorgeous but a big male is no slouch either. A solo male will be fine for life in this tank. This will be a fun project and who knows maybe one ends up in the 300, lol
Blank slate, a 75 gallon which will be a permanent home for one of these future monsters.
9 of these hungry little mouths to feed
Largest one about 5/8”, smallest about 5/16”
One of the little guys in the tank.
@lloyd378, I forgot to get pics of the parents. Could you add that to this thread one of these days? Thanks again for the cool fish. Will be fun growing them out.
