Some already have sky blue fin edges. They’ll be a sky blue troop in a month. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xXInkedPhoenixX Posted June 21, 2021 Share Posted June 21, 2021 That is so neat! I don't have a tank big enough for them (electric blue is a favorite color) but I love to see pics/videos of them. So fun to see the babies swim around like they are. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They’re not a schooling fish. When adult, they’re a medium-sized Cichlid that can grow from 3.5-5.5 inches long. I’d recommend a 40-gal. breeder or larger for a pair. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Cory Posted June 21, 2021 Administrators Share Posted June 21, 2021 Great looking fish. Mine had a batch, but by the time I saw them at 11 at night, next morning they had eaten them 😞 So I'm on the lookout for this next batch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fish Folk Posted July 13, 2021 Author Share Posted July 13, 2021 Little 11-sec update video of the EBA Growout... So far so good. Several water changes each week. BNPs spawned again 😳 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
