    One of the reasons I want to keep Haplochromis thereuterion is because it's a low risk of hybridizing species I could breed with other victorians. I also like their shape and color somewhat different for a vic.

    Hmm... not sure what to say I assume you keep tabs on your water parameters and do regular water changes. My Ent. paropius breed really regularly. I do keep mine in fairly large groups I have about 20 Ent. paropius in my breeding group. And my other groups are currently 12 to 15 individuals per...

    My Enterochromis paropius group produce fry regularly. They are fairly popular though and I often sell them before they reach 1.5 inches. I have all of the ones I'm growing already sold up to ones that will be won't available until March.

    Who's keeping Tangs?

    The plants looks great. I just got 6 little 1 incher Julidochromis ornatus so they are flying solo at the moment trying to get a planted 40 set up to put them and some future multis in.

    Who's keeping Tangs?

    I've heard that gold ocellatus are very aggressive. I think my brevis are pretty aggressive for little guys they like to nip me when i'm cleaning there tank. Makes me jump, then laugh. Thanks for the sharing the knowledge Vicmacki. The guy i buy from likes to keep alot of his Tanganyikans is...

    Who's keeping Tangs?

    I read that people have tried to keep them together but the Leleupi will try to suck fry out of shells sometimes even killing adult multifaciatus though. Have you had success keeping them together Vicmacki?

    Who's keeping Tangs?

    That's unfortunate betty. Yeah I read that they usually do best in pairs didn't know the conspecific agression was that bad though. Like little bottom dwelling demasoni of tangkanyika.

    Who's keeping Tangs?

    Hi Betty just curious if you are breeding Eretmodus cyanostictus " Zambian blue spot" they are awesome little fish with personality I'm interested in getting some eventually. Unfortunately my wish list is rather long at the moment.

    Who's keeping Tangs?

    I live on the other side of the state from you. I have a guy nearby that'll sell me some for a good deal. He had just sold out last time I was in his neck of the woods. Wish there were more Cichlid people close to me but I kind of live in the Timbuktu of Washington so I. Thanks though. :)
