Isolating incubating female C.Leptosoma

After spawning they can be a problem. I find them impossible to catch
so I make no attempt to isolate brooding females. If you can catch
your female wait for 20 days. The fry are fully developed after 20
days but the female may hang on them for much longer. Some females
brood too long. I have had a female hang on to the fry until they
died.

That happens, especially if its their first or second time and the
female is large and there are no hiding places in the tank.
