Entry #44
The fry are three weeks old and although larger than last week, are still small and vulnerable to predation. The parents have been exceedingly diligent defending the fry. They are always on guard duty. Pretty cool for first time parents. I do not know the growth trajectory for these fry but I thought they would be larger by now. They certainly are well fed.
