Some time this morning, one of my younger females -- one of Mama Mbuna's fry
-- spawned for a second time. I was busy typing on my computer, so I am not sure who she mated with, but she definitely has a throat full of eggs. Her ovipositor is still showing. In fact, I am not even certain if she has laid
all of her eggs yet. All of the males are still in quite a frenzied state.
Several of the other young females are also looking quite plump, so I
suspect that they will be spawning again very soon as well.
Over the past several days, I have been spotting two young fry, perhaps .75 inches in length. They are possibly the result of Mama Mbuna's 11th spawn,
or they may be from one of the other young females who spawned in recent
weeks.
There are now so many females in the tank -- all from Mama Mbuna -- and so
many places to hide for the fry, that I have pretty much given up on trying
to keep track of who is who, and who came from who. It's a lost cause, so I
am just going to sit back and enjoy my fish. :)
