That is awesome. I believe they are the most social specie in all of Tanganyikan cichlids. Can you post a full tank shot of this colony?

That's a lot of Brichardi. What tank size?

I have redtop zebras, breeding trio is throwing off albinos.Etc.,Etc.,Etc! Electric blue packing.Parrot fish laying eggs, male is sterile(Common with crossbreeds).

I keep wondering what I'm going to do with all of mine when the tank gets full. I expect my 3rd batch of fry this weekend. One of them has been cleaning all week.

Beth, what size of tank size do you have them in?

[Holchak]

If you leave too many in with the parents, they will start eating them. I hate to lose fish, so I take them to a new tank after about 3 spawns. I'm out of room.

Where are you in Houston?
Some LFS would take them in for store credit. :emt_thumbs:

live off 59@Wilcrest. I've been doing the credit thing for a long time, have credit @ 3 different stores. They can't sell Brichardi as fast as I can provide them. I give my son and friends the Electric blues and red top zebras and yellow labs.Haven't spent money for food, equipment, etc. in 15 years!

30gal. The first fry are getting so big. I can see the blue around their eyes and I've got a rogue one that stays off behind the holey rock by itself. I call it my frat boy. LOL

Oh wow you're close to me! That's wild that you never have to buy food and equipment. It's something I've never really tried.

I was at City Pets today and they had a tank of Brichardi. They had some really pretty fins. It's been years since I had been there.

I hope they eat them when they're so little that I don't notice. Can't stand to see a half dead fish because it's been attacked. Just kills me.

Kinda reminds me of mine. I've got to try and send ya'll some pics so that you can tell me exactly what I've got. I noticed the ones at City Pets today had variations on their fins.

That's a beautiful brichardi. Is it a regular brichardi? He looks like a mix with kiku Firetip.

Wow that's crazy!!!!

You are in SW and very close to me. Would you mind if I bum some fry from you LOL? I have a 90 gallon Tangs community and can use some small Brichardi to fill up the top water column.

Can also give you some of my leulepi if you are interested for your Brichardi fry.

Ohmygosh, I can't imagine your house! Babies and more babies. What a house full of hormones. LOL
