For context — I had no plans of having grandfishes. Saw eggs in the cave, and I read that these fish are usually sterile. then one day, boom… over 200 frys.
Obviously mom and dad changed behavior overnight and became incredibly aggressive. Once the frys swam out of the cave, it was game over for the rest of the tank. They were all banished to the top corners and barely moved. Death sentences.
So while I wait for the fish store to open so I can re-home this beautiful young family (very sadly) — I cut some mesh as you can see.
Immediate success – my other fish are happily enjoying the tank again, and the parents got their own custom nursery.
Overall a crazy experience, not gonna lie.

Just the little cave alone is cool
