    Dave,I did order few from Kensfish couple of month ago and its work great for me ,reasonable price too.

    Mouthbrooding fish, including many African Cichlids, incubate their eggs in their mouths until they hatch in order to protect them from nearby hazards and predators. This enables these fascinating fish to produce fewer offspring while simultaneously increasing survival rates. These egg tumblers help keep the eggs movin

            When using tumblers it's best to have multiple for eggs at different stages. I also never remove females. There are dominant and subdominant females just like males. That messes up the hierarchy.

              Hung,
              I haven't trip fish before until couple of months ago when I got wild group Ikola , it not that hard , I just hate to hold on to the fish kind of tight and try to open their mouth that is the only bad part but if I don't trip then all the frys will get kill by other fishes cause I don't like to put a lot of rocks in the tank.
              I order five tumblers and all full now , still have 10-12 holding at this moment.

                Thank You Mogan and I agree with him Remove the female like I did will slow down production fry too. Now I move one step up to learn how to strip and raise them in tumbler. I just done 2 of 40 gal sump tank design for my tropheus with in the middle tank will have space to raise fry or tumbler ( space I calculate 20gal by 21x13x17) I will post the sump tank when I completed run with tumbler. these I just make this morning.
