There was 2 of them... I think when the time comes I'd rather fight them to the death like bettas.

This is a sign you shouldn't sell them. Are there any tank-mates that would eat the fry? If not, then let them hold!

i thought maybe the big fm moshi might,but i have a 1/2 inch moba that jumped out of its little floating nursary and was right beside her.i got it back in the nursary now but the tropheus or the moshi didnt bother it at all.ill probably still strip in a week or so.i used to strip my duboisi when i had them.hopefully these breed like the dubs did.

I've had my Kasanga for 6 months now with no breeding. I'm very envious!


(fwiw.. I just finally got my colony healthy. ALL of them are colored up, and I think I finally shook off the last of the sickness. I'll try to post some pictures tonight of the color, but I've only got a p-n-s digital, so no promises on quality.)

18 Adult Wild Caught sp. Moorii Kasanga Red Rainbow

32 Juvenile Burundi Pond Raised sp. Moorii Kasanga Red Rainbow

04 Adult Wild Caught sp. Brichardi Kipili

02 Juvenile Tank Raised sp. Duboisi Unknown Variant

Group Shot:


The rest can be seen here.

I'm hoping to pick up 4 to 8 more WC adult Kasanga that Xtreme just got in stock. By income tax I hope to be able to sell the juvi Kasanga, and finish out the tank with one more order of WC for a total of 30, plus or minus.

Still no breeding, but everyone is healthy, hungry, and happy.
