I just got 4 frontosa, pretty small right now, i have been pretty much just a c/sa cichlid guy but i have moved into africans, i have 1 m 3 f im going to attempt to breed them, i have moderatly high salt and a ph of 8.. they are still to small but i hope within 8 months they will be mature enough to breed. i just put them in tonight i would take pics but i dont want to turn the light on yet, theyve had a stressful day and i want them to chill. will post very soon though.

Species:

Convict Cichlids

How many:

1 Male, 1 female and 3 fry in another tank

How long trying:

Female laid eggs within a few days of introducing her. The first day was my male chasing her around relentlessly; after that period they got along great.

Any successful spawns already:

1. My female was so small she only laid 20 eggs.

Set up:

Standard 20 gallon.

Any triggers/other information :

watcha got...

Well I've read that when you introduce them, they like to "test" each other first; see if they are capable of defending a potential nest. If they make it through that period, it's smooth sailing.

My Orange/Red Head Tapajos have been breeding like rabbits, but since I have 2 males, the fries have not been able to survive.
I have not had much time to tend to them as well. If and when I find some time, I will strip the female after the wigglers are free swimming.
after a sucessful spawn and raising of the Red Heads I will start a Festae project soon.
