Tropheus Nkonde Yellow

[Bob]

On my recent trip to the wet spot, i picked up 6 of these guys (all they had). I am looking to bolster my number and add to the gene pool. If anyone has some for sale please let me know.

Congrats!!! They are really quite stunning.

Nkonde's are really nice trophs. ^_^
Mind sharing how much you paid per fish?
Is it WC or TR?

 

[Bob]

I asked and they didnt know anything really. Cant really expect them to know everything about the thousand cichlids they have there. I am assuming tank raised, they are showing some color. I asked for collection points on them and also on the cyps they had, but they didnt know. Would probably have to contact Cichlid Exchange for that info. They were $19.99.

I see... i mean how big are they? Are they adult size?

 

[Bob]

Not even close, maybe an inch to and inch and a half

I always love tropheus. . I used to have red rainbows but i have to give it up due to house space. =(

Are these often kept in community tanks, or are they best with other tropheus?

Best to keep with other tropheus (make sure its a different type of trophs to avoid crossbreed), but can be kept with OTHER african cichlids.

I am keeping them with some Cynotilapia currently, but once they get bigger ill move them into a species only tank.
