I added 6 rainbow cichlid juvies. The larger female chases the smaller but I haven't seen the male chasing the females.Just curious: with that number/ratio, are you planning to add any dithers to this tank?
Well, in my unsolicited opinion, that is not the best choice for any number of reasons, foremost among them being the fact that the rainbows will pick off Nanochromis fry, one by one by one.I added 6 rainbow cichlid juvies.

And plants too . But, I can now take down the planted 55g tanks since it is only housing guppies. The rescape will have the N.S. in mind.Well, in my unsolicited opinion, that is not the best choice for any number of reasons, foremost among them being the fact that the rainbows will pick off Nanochromis fry, one by one by one.
Sounds good. Nanochromis pair up pretty easily if both the male and female are in good shape, but it is a good idea to have distractions, even for bonded pairs. In a 29, a school of neon or cardinal tetras would be perfect; that's what worked best for me when I was breeding N. transvestitus. Keep the pH low, and don't let it fluctuate, and everybody will be happy!I think the male has paired with the larger female. I have the 2 coconut huts placed at opposite ends of the 29g. The smaller female hangs out around the one in the front of the tank while the larger is in the back. I don't see the male aggressively chasing the female either. Fingers crossed.
Well, the splendens definitely enjoy their's.When I was breeding N. transvestitus their favourite spawning site by far was inside of halved coconut shells.
