Duboisi Mom Frees Fry

After exactly 40 days, the overprotective Duboisi Karilani mom released her fry for good. There were six pearly little butterflies comprising the brood, all healthy and acting like tropheus siblings. The fry are already eating crushed spiralina flake and making themselves at home in the 20 gallon long aquarium. Her mate was moved into another tank, and she took his place to ensure her safety. She'll be getting re-acquainted with the aquascape in the 72 gallon aquarium while the male gets a vacation of his own. At some point, I'll try to put them back together -- but under heavy supervision!
