Heros Severum Feeding Frenzy

April 5th, 2008 | Posted by admin in Uncategorized

These are my juvenile heros Severum. Heros Severum are members of the cichlid family. The female is a five year old gold severum and the male is a two year old green severum. The juveniles are about five months old. There are about 36 young total. The tank is a 55 gallon freshwater lightly planted with java moss and java fern. The fry were hatched at about 80 degrees and fed a diet of fry food via a turkey baster. Later on the fry were fed a mixture of frozen brine shrimp, generic flake, and cichlid bites. I attribute the success of the eggs hatching to the introduction of a generic anti-fungal agent before the eggs were laid. Still images here: www.flickr.com More information here: en.wikipedia.org
