having babies

[skippy2]

this is skippy2 son. my mother had the fish mixed up.
the father is a texas, and the mother is a flowerhorn.
the fry are about an 1/8 of inch all ready in 2 weeks.
what do I do?

What do you want to do? Do you wanna grow them out and see what they look like? Or just feed them to any other fish you have?

The decision is up to you now. You have LFS wanting to see them, heck they may try to buy them off you. I guess I wouldn't count on it though. Just my opinion.

I'm not sure what the parenting traits of a flowerhorn and texas are, but at some point, you may have to remove the father soon.
One of the parents may start getting violent toward the other.
That is my experience with other cichlids though.

I'm sorry some one jumped to the accusation that you were a troll. Don't let it get to you and stick around.
