Hi I am assuming that this is the write place to be. if not, point me in the right direction please! Anyway, we bought a pair of red devils and were told by the pet shop that they would not hurt our other tropicals and that they were non aggressive but as usual they were only after the money and the ones that survived were transported to the neighbour where they are flourishing! These fish laid eggs on the second day home and we ended up with a 1000 eggs apprx. but as the weeks have gone by, the babies have shrunk to just a few, is the male eating them? should we be putting them in another fish tank? Only after about a month, it appears (from your readings) that they are about to spawn once again as the male is terrorising the poor female! They are worse than rabbits! Should I take these little babies out that are remaining? deb
