Horsepucky! Tell that one to all the breeders.
You can raise all fish without their parents, cichlids are no
exception. Fry do fine if given their own space.
The only fish that should stay with the parents are discus,
and I've heard from discus breeders that remove them too.
It is just more ENJOYABLE to watch good parent fish raise
their fry, not mandatory.
