I think my rams are wanting to breed. why?
well
1. There colors have become more vivid and theres more red then usual
2. there fins are always open
3. the ovipositor is visible.
so i guess there gonna breed? i doubt the fry would make it im sure the other cichlid would eat em.

Another thing to watch for is them cleaning a flat surface(i.e. a flat rock) as well as guarding the space.

Sounds like there's gonna be some eggs soon. You can artificially hatch the eggs if you want to save them. Just don't forget the fungicide

i think they might have laid eggs. but i dont know whos eggs.. i wanna remove them if possible so they wont be harmed. :D:D but it might possibly be my jewel cichlid i just got??? cuz it seems to be guarding the eggs but if thats true i guess there in fertile.
