We have a juvinille malawi cichlid born in our tank (species unknown)

How long (cm) is the fish? How old?

S/He is between 6-7 cm and is about 9 months old. The age is an
approximation, for we were not even aware that there had been any
reproduction going on in our tank until we saw "Pee-Wee" as a
juvinille of ~ 1-2 cm. What do you think?
thanks!

Your fish has a mouthful of eggs
I normally wait 2 weeks and 'strip' them
research 'fry saver' and 'milking' malawi cichlids
now if you don't have 2 of the same species the babys will be hybrids
not as bad as you may read, just gotta warn anyone ya pass fry onto
If she is getting skinny I would definitely strip her and raise the fry
seperate (floating frysaver)
that way she can start eating again
One of your fish should be extra pretty and dominant
Malawi cichlids go on a bit of a power trip when they finally get lucky!
