  1. Have had my kribs for a few months now, in a 40G with some neon tetras, Khuli Loachs and hillstream locahes.

    The Kribs are definately in the mood, turning pink and dancing around each other. They also have a few caves etc that the female will sit in every now and then.

    But.....no fry. I have seen eggs, but pretty sure that they are not viable and have been dumped just outside the cave.

    Any thoughts? worried that the male is inferitle. He does not seem to go into the cave with the female, but does do all the dancing, shaking and what not!

  2. Hello,

    First post here, from Brit in Singapore!

    I have three Kribensis (two females and a male) in a 40 gallon (also in the tank, 5 khuli loach, two hillstream loach and a couple of leopard corys - will be getting more soon to get it to about 10)

    The tank is island style (two islands and two caves) in the main cave on the left the male has been digging the sand out and guards the main island ferouciously! The substrate is fine sand.

    He chases the females whenever they come out of their hiding spots (one on the left behind the filter intake and one who hides on the right behind the heater).

    I want them to breed but am concerned that he is going to stress them out and kill them. They all come from the same shop (a great local shop), but got the male and females about a week apart.

    I have heard that I could/maybe should get some dither fish (neons?) perhaps more hiding spots, more caves, also planning on planting some vallisneria at the back on the right.

    Any thoughts?
