We call them "yellow princess" in my country! 🙂 Beautiful colors, energetic character and behavior on a little bit more peaceful side for cichlids in general(ime). And easy to breed! I just love heavily planted tank look more than rocky lake biome. But I miss these fish sometimes. Just not a fan of the tank look myself :') Any plans on adding more fish or breeding them more to increase the population for 75g? They look so pretty😊 Would love to see the 75g in the future!

Stephen Zawacki Posted January 27, 2023 Author Share Posted January 27, 2023 I don’t know yet about if I will add more species, i think that I will keep it just them to keep their like pure I don’t want hybridization and thank you, I’ve worked hard on these guys, beefing them up!

I see! I'm not that experienced with cichlids by any means, but as far as I know, understocking sometimes may lead to aggression, as they all start to establish some sort of territory if I'm not wrong. That's why I've asked if you wanna keep the same numbers considering the tank size more than twice! You may wanna look on that one, or our friends here who are experienced with cichlid keeping may make some suggestions. Again, I'm not that experienced with cichlids, I kept them like 15 years ago or so. Just wanted to share something left on my mind! I feel like 11 yellows in a 75g might be on the understocking side for cichlids, just an opinion tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Zawacki Posted January 27, 2023 Author Share Posted January 27, 2023 Oh gotcha now I understand what your saying I’m sorry got confused, my goal is for them to keep breeding and that is how I get my numbers up because all I started with in this 30 was a true adult pair and they had babies like rabbits lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lennie Posted January 27, 2023 Share Posted January 27, 2023 I see! I literally love the pure bright yellow color all over the tank too. I think they look really good alone only as yellow tab tank as well. Please take my abovementioned opinion above with a grain of salt. Just wanted to mention that, to be better safe than sorry. You have time ahead to search for a good answer anyway. Have fun! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
