    Telling when the female is holding: you will see that the female tends not to eat, the under part of her mouth is full, she will move her mouth around, which is her incubating the fry. When you notice this happening to your female, you will want to make note of the date. It usually takes about 14 days for the fry to fully mature and become free swimming. Some people wait a little longer, or until the female releases the fry on her own. This is fine, but we have had some females hold onto the fry so long that they get pinch belly, which is something they can die of. You may see this in females that are consistently holding.
