Kyle murfitt Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 Just a quick update from the last time. Have been dealing with out of town work and then a broken hand so feel like I'm neglecting the tanks but the fish are happy and growing 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jawjagrrl Posted October 12, 2021 Share Posted October 12, 2021 I had mbuna in the 90s and lucked up to raise a breeding pair of OB zebras - beautiful mouth brooders, which was fascinating to watch. I was selling fry back to my LFS about monthly for some time, nice store credit to support my hobby. These guys make me miss those days! 🙂 Enjoy yours! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My son got it in his head to breed Auratus a few years ago. Kind of intense fish! But beautiful in their own right. Here’s the video of his work… 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that female really put out some fry for her first batch! I got 10 from my first and she had more in the main tank while I was out of town, have only found 4 or so hiding amongst the other cichlids 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sudofish Posted October 13, 2021 Share Posted October 13, 2021 Very nice! My first tank was so close to being an Mbuna tank. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
