        Tropheus will care for their young for about a week's time when she gets to the point she wants to re-enter into the hierarchy, at which point the children will be left to their own vices.

          Yep, she spits them out in that corner all the time...unfortunately whenever I walk to the tank, all the other trophs swim over because I'm 'the hand that feeds' and she freaks out and sucks them all back in.

          It's something that never gets old.
