We were treated to a real show at Raffles. They had two males that were ready to strip the babies from. These fish are paternal mouthbrooders, so Daddy Fish holds the eggs and developing fry in his mouth until they are able to swim and fend for themselves. Farmers take the fry early and raise them in tanks and let the male recover from his fast. This is a demonstration of the stripping process.
