Several tanks of Pseudotropheus demasoni, Labidochronis caeruleus juvies and starting a group of Ruby Reds still juvies but growing out.

Just getting started with the breeding thing.

Social unrest mostly...

My fish do all of the actual breeding, I'm more of a 'facilitator' and a bit of a voyeur like I suspect most hereabouts. Scleromystax species and Bolivian Rams so far. Have various Apistos, some blue angels and a couple Nannacara species but mostly all were acquired as juveniles and aren't quite there yet.

Would like to buy or trade for some of those Laetecara if that works out...

Cories, Gymnos, Apistos, Apistogramoides, tetras, gouramis, and rainbows. Going to cut back to just a couple species of rainbows - so if anyone is interested in dither fish let me know and I'll bring them on the 9th. Also going to cut back on other stuff so will have lots in the Catfish Convention auction.

Yeah, I've got way too many fish. Probably will be getting rid of some more groups in the next few months.

As for tips, I get some nice spawning behavior after a large water change. I'm also a firm believer in frozen food - krill and brine shrimp, blood worms for new world/tropical community only.

Fish need their space. Many of these groups are house in tanks where the male is not the alpha male of the tank and cannot breed. Move the group out of a semi-community/growout setting and into a species tank and watch them do their thing.

Too many to count...and (unfortunately) too busy to raise many fry.

Found a big swarm of fry from the little wild pair of Suriname Cichlasoma bimaculatum that I got from Rapps a few weeks ago... Also found a Red Hump Geo and a Nyassochromis prostoma holding yesterday...
