Lamprichthys Tanganicanus

Hi all

As I was reading one of Ad Koning's books last night, to help me get through the auction at the NSWCS, I came across the titled fish. As a dither, what could be better or indeed more appropriate in a Tang tank?

So, with respect to cichlid tanks, has anyone experience with this fish and does anyone know if there are many about in Sydney.

I have read through this forum that they are apparently quite fragile. Maybe this is why they don't seem to be around? I wonder if they can be imported?

Cheers

Glenn

They are a Tanganyikan Killie

Yes they have been in the country, don't know what

eventually happened to them

they breed by lodging the eggs in rock crevases or

cracks in the grains of wood

Nice looking fish but the Killie specialists that obtained

some had a hard time trying to keep and spawn them

from memory
