hi. I have a 90 Gallon cichlid tank with 2 Ptyochromis sp. "salmon", 5 metriclima callianos, 4 Aulonocara Rubescens, and 5 "stuartgranti Maleri"(one died 2 weeks ago, so now 4). the one that died had no wounds. I bought all of them as juveniles. they are now an average of 2.5 to 3 inches long. my largest is an Aulonocara sp. stuartgranti maleri, i have thought he was a male as he was the largest and most colored up. 2 days ago i noticed "he" didnt come to eat and I did not see him for over a day. i found "him" and saw that it looked as if "he was "chewing", like a female when holding. he was also staying in hidden cave. it has now come out and is still chewing but is now bumping into rocks and plants. i thought maybe it was indeed a female holding but the bumping into things seems odd. does anyone have any insight here. thanks in advance.
