smidey Posted January 13, 2008 Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 the next fry to be listed on trademe then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johannes Visser Posted January 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 13, 2008 the next fry to be listed on trademe then? LOL not quite! Holding females will be left in the tank to spit. The tank will be striped down once a year and fry removed! That's the plan. Will have heaps of other cichlids fry for sale just wanting to grow them a bit more !

Johannes Visser Posted March 17, 2008 Author Report Share Posted March 17, 2008 Absolutely gorgeous looking fish Love the babies, so cute What rock do you mean? A rock formation? Or substrate? :oops: Caper Don't have a great picture as the light in there is to bright, making it difficult to get a good pic Its a 5f tank filled from one end to the other and all along the back towards the centre with Lime stone and corral rock! Great hiding space for the young ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
