Geophagus Altifrons Spawn

I started keeping one of favorite cichlids - Geophagus Altifrons 6 months back. I acquired excellent stock from Jeff Rapps. My Geos began spawning about 2 months back but after 4 spwans, Geos are able to maintain their babies and mouth brood them very well. Indeed its a learning curve on the fish as well. Its an amazing site to watch when the babies literally form a ball and get sucked in. Mother nature is amazing. This is a video of them spawning (below) and then the babies about a 5-8 days old. Its a remarkable sight to watch
