then you must have something else going on in your tank. I breed my
pair in a 20 g tank all the time. I just recently sold off the last
of about 120 fry and the parents have another group of fry with them
now. Kribs are normally excellent parents however I did have a male
that I had to remove as he was eating the fry. With this group the
male is banished and hides under a log all day while the female swims
around with her babies.

It was along while ago and as I said it was a community tank, there were
other fish in the tank who slowly picked off the fry. I line bread them and
ended up with one of the best looking male kribs. I have ever seen. The
colours on him were magnificent especially the golds and magenta, and the
spots ran from near the front of his dorsal fin to the tip of his tail. I
don't think I have seen one to match his colour or size since. Unfortunately
I don't have any in my tanks at the moment but they are one of my favourite
fish.
