I've never bred cichlids, and always had mixed mbuna tanks. My male zebra obliquidens in my new tank has been looking great lately, and all over the females.
I noticed since this afternoon that one of the females is holding! I have a 10 empty, it has an airstone powered undergravel only for filtration and has been set up for awhile. When do I pitch her in? Should I do it right away? When do I take her back out of it? Should I attempt to strip her? She's staying towards the back of the tank, up high, not at the front looking for food like the rest of them. I really like these fish, wouldn't mind a tank of fry!
