    I'd move the other fish . . . leave the parents and eggs alone.

    Dorothy : How can you talk if you haven't got a brain?
    Scarecrow: I don't know... But some people without brains do an awful lot of talking... don't they?
    Dorothy: Yes, I guess you're right.

              I'm sorry . . . for some reason I thought this was a 20g . . . not a 100g. I guess it is unreasonable to remove those fish from a 100g tank.

              Are you interested in raising the fry? HRPs are pretty good parents in my experience. You should be able to move the parents and eggs (if attached to something moveable) to a different tank. It wouldn't be bad.

                she is very interested in raising the fry this is her first time and shes happy as hell lol. they are attached to a rock. ill move the parents and the eggs/rock to a 20g long tank to ensure nothing go on as far as other fish eating the eggs. thanks for helping her out.
