The pair successfully bred two weeks ago. I generally leave the fry with the new parents. Most often the first batch of fry don't last past a day or so...new parents. These two did surprisingly well for the first round.
Here's the female;

The male never really achieved a yellow coloration as they do in the wild. Perhaps when he gets older...maybe not at all. They did fluctuate with more drastic contrasting colors.

The female stayed pretty much like this throughout.



The male not so much...but you can see the contrasting colors. Most amazing part...still...how fast they can change into this color pattern.

He spent a lot of time hiding...almost like, what the hell is going on? LOL Here he is hiding in the log looking out the window at me with my camera. Beautiful colors.

Final shot of momma and babies.
