Do your juvies breed?

Hi guys,

i have some 3-4cm interruptus that i have been growing in a little 2ft tank, noticed a few weeks back that one of the females was holding but decided to leave her hoping she would spit on her own, anyway after 3 weeks she was still holding so i took matters into my own hands (literally) and milked 7 full grown fry from her! no sacks at all.

im actually quite surprised, does anyone else have experience with this?

Also im thinking of moving her to my adult tank but the adults are 7-8cm so im worried she might get picked on, any reccomendations?

Hi there, the smallest Mbuna I have bred are Cynotilapia Afra 'Cobue' that were about 4-5cm (only small mouthfulls 3-5 fry each).

I might be a bit worried adding her to a tank with adults (and a larger dominant male at that).
