Cool! How big are they?(parents) got a digi-cam? They're usually quite good parents, they'll take good care of the fry and protect from other fish in the tank. The fry are pretty resistant also....

The female is small at about 4 inches and the male is about 7 inches.
No sorry no cam
Man there are thousands of eggs.
I thought the female would have been to imature at that size.
Yes they are protective over the eggs and will attack my hands and draw blood

Well they are hatching and the parents are moving them to a place in the tank that they have prepared in one corner of the tank.
Fun watching them suck up the fry swimto the corner and spit them up. Its like the same way they do with gravel, if anyone has seen red devils move gravel around (lot more than oscars do).
