look like Rio Branco to me but that is the problem with wholesalers and LFS that use trade names rather than correctly ID the fish

pretty normal for the female to spit when netted, some pick them up some eat them up

if she spawns in future you will most likely have the same experience and need to  .............................

if they are heads and tails they will be fine in a fry saver ...... NOT a fry net as they will get eaten through the net

if they are eggs then you will need to tumble them

plenty of vids online showing milking females of eggs

sure knows his fish   wish I could get bristlenose to over 30cm but I like them better with bristles

it comes down to being a hobbyist or a cash grab

you are either an ethical hobbyist that wants to learn and develop in your hobby

or you don't care, believe you know everything because that is what you bought

them as and so can never be wrong as it's against their ego.

They live with a closed mind while only interested in trying to make money

you can't educate someone that has no ethics or doesn't want to learn

Mylochromis anaphyrmus now there is something you don't see everyday

very nice 

Fine sand or no substrate

they tend to ingest substrate when feeding and get impaction in the gut

causing them to bloat up

and don't give them big feeds as they will just pig out

Cost depends on if you get caught or not as they are not an allowable import

now gone LFS had a customer ask one of the staff about Aulonacara

the answer was only the males are different the females are the same

Pearsei are vegetarian so more fibre than protein

very peaceful but get large

Bocourti have the same temperament and similar size
