in the wild they eat fish eggs that the current takes away. Yes. every time i notice two different species spawning I will let them finish then I strip the eggs and feed them to my show fish. Great source of protein. Just dont feed salted and cured caviar lol
I guess it depends on the cichlid, but as mentioned, all fish probably eat the eggs of their neighbor fish. I would not purposely feed a herbivore roe from outsode the tank because the emphasis should be on vege based foods for them.
