I'll start ramping up their breeding program, so everyone can enjoy them! They really are a nice fish! smile.gif
And through my observations, Lethrinops are only a few species of Malawi that schools together unlike most other african rifties... biggrin.gif

I now have 18 healthy Yellow Collar fry swimming around! biggrin.gif
4 is what's left from the first holding female when I went to Melbourne a few weeks ago.. She spat them when I was away...and most got eaten...
Today.. 14 more from another female!
Still have another 3-4 females holding in the main tank. Will move them to nursery tanks very soon..!

I'm "Big Kev" & I'm excited! hehe! Rofl_3f.gif
