Ok, easier said than done lol. I was so excited to see that big hole. Then I noticed the big one kissing two different fish. I only have five and I had no idea what sex they were but now I sort of do. Thanks :D

Elizabeth,
Do not get discouraged. Answer Randall's questions and use this as a learning step
Dukie,
This is not a simple question and answer. Sit back and chill. It might not happen at all this time.

How long after the male digs his hole and starts his kissing of the females are the eggs released for fertilization?

OMG, about a week ago we star it an aquarium with 5 tilapias from our main tank; it all look great bought a heater to make the water to a comfortable 80,s and saw the nesting and we thought all was all good, we went away for 5 days to come back to a sad 3 dead 1 almost dead and 1 in a okay condition, we thinks this is a big male. We are having such of difficult time sexing them that we provably put to many males or females and they kill them self, also the water was very high on everything and murky. We are so sad and disappoint it, need all the help we can get from you experts out there. We are trying to had them reproduce in the aquarium. Thanks

Harlyn,
Thank you for sharing. I get discouraged on this site from people without experience misquoting the research as if it is their own experience.
Thank you

They aren't very big yet. So I suppose they have a lot of room for themselves. So I don't think my tank is overpopulated yet
