malawi sand diver Posted November 16, 2011 Author Share Posted November 16, 2011 Hi Rowie, the red cap has settled in well & hes in good shape. I'm currently growing out some females to add in hope it will brighten up his red cap.Hi Mark, in those photos above, they were all in the big 10 foot tank. I took some more pics tonight of some of my other species and some of the other tanks I have.Feeding timeAstatotilapia CallipteraRubin Red4cm fryPhenos/AcuticepsRegards, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

malawi sand diver Posted November 17, 2011 Author Share Posted November 17, 2011 Hi JohnThe Acuticeps male is just starting to show a bit of blue and I predict he will start to colour up in a few months time. He has just started bossing around a particular peacock in my tank which is a great sign, since I want him to become the dominant fish in the tank eventually.The Calliptera have bred, both females I have are quite small but I got 7 fry out of each one when I stripped them the other day. Looking forawrd to getting some large mouthfuls. The dominant male is much brighter than in the picture they are a top fish.Regards, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Priscacara Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Nice pics and great fish, not familiar with a lot of them so always like seeing new species. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted December 9, 2011 Share Posted December 9, 2011 Nice selection of fish as always mate.Am going to seperate my Christyi shortly and get some fry out of them. Pretty slow to mature and colour up these guys.Any luck with the Acuticeps yet? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
malawi sand diver Posted December 12, 2011 Author Share Posted December 12, 2011 Alex, Seems like a good idea to seperate the Christyi. The big haps are hard to breed and seperating them into their own tank might fire the male up.Well guys the Acuticeps male has just started to colour up. I have taken some video I'm uploading on YouTube and a couple of shots I'll post in a new thread shortly.Regards, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
