Hi everbody, I'm new to the forum so please bear with me as I attempt to explain my enquiry. I have recently pruchased a few Pseudotropheus interruptus (aka Melanochromis elastodema or brevis, so I am told). The female died shortly after I introduced them to their new enviroment. They were in a 900 x 450 x 450 tank on their own (3 fish). I have asked around a number of reputable fish shops and they all tell me that some years ago these were imported into the South Island, but have not heard of them since. I would like to attempt to breed them, but only if I can obtain some females of the species. Any information would be of great assistance.
