:hail: HI, does any1 know how to stop cichlid from spawning without taking the female out of the tank? the reason is I got no spare tank to house the female, and I love to keep them all..lol

The female kept on spawning and it causing alot of drama for my other 3 male I had!

What type of fish are they?

Sometimes you just have to remove the female if breeding is causing that much trouble. Another option would be to do things that make the fish unhappy (decrease temp, put it in really weird water parameters) so they don't breed but then they wont be happy and you wont enjoy them they may get sick etc and it may not stop them either :)

I guess you could also divide the female off from the males but they will probably still try and breed through the divider causing just as many fights on the male side.
