Default Heros Severums HELP

Anyone out there know what is best for the fry once they are free swimming. Is it best to take the parents, green severums, out or not. They also look as if they are breeding again will they still look after the first lot of fry. Thanks for looking . Any help appreciated. Bethan:

I guess I was lucky with mine, when they bred, they wouldn't spawn again until the fry had been removed and moved on at about 1/2inch. I'm guessing they are an inexperienced pair? I would personally leave the fry where they are, give them the chance to learn what to do.

I agree with Curviceps. If you only have the severums in that tank then leave the babies in there. With my Salvini, Cubans and Bifas they wouldnt breed until the other fry were removed aswell and would look after them for months. But yours should be fine.
