Totally helpful, thank you so much.. I accidentally added another female.. This made the Alfa feel obligated to destroy both other females.. Guess she loves her man

Kribensis

Ive got one breaking pair and a single female in my 75g.. Would it be okay to introduce another male in hopes to creat another pair

Myself, and really good point.. Oh and I know this is pathetic but how do I find out what water chemistry and temp should have for each specific tank..

Thank you for the advice, I had a pair of kribs and a pair of convicts but I just (literally 20 minutes ago) discovered my male krib has a big blister on his side and he was belly up in the prosses of dying.. Very upset!

Any suggestions on which species might coexist?

Id love to keep the old mans legacy going.. His tank truly is breath taking! It's a one of a kind! For sure ill post pics of it when I go pick up the other two tanks he has that I can afford

Even in a 75g? Gee I wish I had the money to get this 220 a lady is selling the town over from me.. Her husband has been in aquariums since he was four and he's now 72 an has cancer so they are selling the entire set up for 750.. I know amazing right?!?

Hopefully both pair pick my veining caves

You might not be sure, but I'm 100% hoping you are right.. The breeding rituals and intelligence are the main two reasons for my switch from community/semi aggressive tank to and african south/central cichlids. Are kribensis open/mouth/cave brooders? Correrct me if I'm wrong but convicts are...

That is amazing to here! They've been acting extremely curious she "vibrates" or shakes her body and lifts hear head and he fallows and rubs agains her he is patient but persistent. I've only had these guys for 3 days! Extremely excited.. Now if I could just get my convicts to pick the opposite...

I took the johanni male out. Along with the two green terrors ,4 African peacocks, and one of the two sucker fish I had in. I now have in my 75g 2 juvenile yellow labs 1 albino mellow natured pecock (that was bullied the hardest by the johanni), 6 small juvenile catfish(the black spotted ones...

Okay I've got two dwarf African cichlids and need to know what there color change is

Will do Don. Thank you for the info still

I'm confused so if my fish was in a tank with yellow fish that had the same markings as him then they are all Johannis they just haven't gotten there blue color yet or they are female johanni.. Correct me if I'm way off:)?

Do Maingano females have the same pattern of black, and where my Maingano has blue the females have yellow?

I got this guy at Petsmart last week and he was mixed in with about 10 other fish that looked exactly like him same black lines but the others were yellow.. No trace of blue. The salesman told he that he was just a rare color morph. Then I went to a family owned pet store where the fish...

Male johanni? If so what does the female look like? I apologize, everyone, for my ignorance but the Petsmart guy seems to have blown smoke up my "vent". I'd just like to set the record straight starting with my second favorite fish

Thanks, also I'm going to attempt to breed a pair of convicts and a pair of a dwarf African cichlids in the same 75g I'm going to add more caves is there anything else I can do to promote breeding? Or is it even possible for them to breed in the same tank

First off what's this guy called?

My first time posting anything.. Haven't quite figured out how to maneuver around this app. But everyone seems so dang nice! It's gotta be the fish lover inside all of us I suppose. I've never met an angry guy/lady walking out of a store with fish in his hand
