Apistogramma cacatuoides

I introduced the male and female Apistogrammas into my aquarium about three weeks ago. Subsequently they produced about 30 babies. They seem to be very caring parents and not too mean to the other fish in the tank. Of course the male is constantly keeping any intruders at bay. Today the female started clearing pebbles away, exposing the sand. I am not sure what she is up to but it is keeping her very busy. This is my first attempt to film fish and hopefully you will find it entertaining.
