well it didnt last too long, but none the less, at least they have shown interest in each other. the tropheus kept getting in the way...

[fshfrk]

The domonate male will not put up with that for long. give it time! If dubs thats a little more of a problem.

[newb]

nah its the chimbas.

[cichlid1409]

[newb]

congrats...not everyone can get large petros to breed!!!

[newb]

I havent done anything special with them. they havent bred yet...I dont want to count my eggs so to speak.

[russ]

at least your alpha isnt killing them!

[geoff_tropheus]

That is always the first step. Get them to colonize and accept each other. Then usually not too much longer and... BAM...here come babies...

Unless you got too many males and they stay too busy fighting over them girls and real estate to park the shagin-wagon
