The film completes the series on the behaviour of the substrate breeder Tilapia mariae. With regard to spawn care, both male and female display dimorphous behaviour. Until the young swim up into the open, the spawn is cared for almost solely by the female; afterwards, both male and female share the responsibility of defending their young. A peculiar yerk of the head is the parents' method of warning the young in case of alarm.
