I may be interested in some also, Bred them a few years ago, great species

[me]

the ones you bred a few years would probably have been my fry

I bred them for quite a while hey a few years i got over 60 fry off one mouthfull, every 4-6 months i was taking like 150 of them to the lfs.

They where givving me good credit for sucha large amount of fish!

My fave fish of all time.

I would have kept breeding them if my male didnt die, powerhead impeller got caught heated tank up. He went in to shock and got caught behind the heater.

cooked him
