Hi, Well first off well done on breeding the Bristle-noes! As for their chance
of survival, well, if they have plenty of cover and their parents are attentive
they may well make it, or at least some of them as it's likely that there were
many more fry originally. Bristle-noses do breed quite readily especially if a
group is kept. If it's possible to identify the parents perhaps you might like
to think about setting up a breeder tank to ensure maximum survival rates.
Unfortunately Cichlids will make short work of any fry they can get at so, as I
said earlier, make sure there is plenty of hiding places.

Regards
Steve.
