Default Baby Kribs

Hi folks

following on from my previous post about buying a pair of kribensis and them
laying eggs 3 days later, I now have about 30 baby kribs that are over a
week old. Both parents are fiercely protective, but the rest of the fish are
surviving fairly well.

The ones that have taken most of the damage are the corys. They do not seem
to have the wit to stay out of the way of the kribs and they are looking a
bit battered.

How lomg are the parents likely to look after them before they get fed up?

I don't really expect any of them to survive, but as there are a few of
them and they are getting bigger every day, one or two might make it.
