Evo Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Respect the fact that people pay for bandwidth - do not post any image on the forums without the permission of the owner, and do not hotlink to pictures on other sites. It is illegal to steal bandwidth. no wonder they are hard to find.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surtac Posted April 16, 2008 Share Posted April 16, 2008 Yes they are around. I have a breeding pair but am keeping them. I also have around 200 fry but they won't be ready for a couple of months. If you keep looking you will find some. Wayne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayne hi there was there anything hard about keeping these fish like do they do well in community tank or better on there own. Also breeding how hard was that i have good success so far with my breeding program of other cichlids and hope to do well with these fish also. Any hints would be great Would also be interested in some of your fry when they are ready as i would love to start a breeding colony of my own with these cichlids so keep me posted kind regards wild4cichlids p.s thanks for your reply and interest very grateful Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Surtac Posted April 17, 2008 Share Posted April 17, 2008 Hi, I have found them an easy fish to keep but I have only kept the pair in their own tank & have not tried any other fish with them.The male can get rather agressive so the female needs somewhere to hide. They were not hard to get to breed but ate there eggs within 2 days of spawning.They have spawned several times & only once that I have manged to get any fry. They are a substrate spawner & lay several hundred eggs the eggs are not adhesive but form a large clump about the size of a golf ball. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
