Seems that my tricoti will beat cyphos gibberosas to the spawning punch. Male beginning to show spawning colors.

Holy awesome!

That's certainly something you do not see every day. :)

How big are they? How many do you have? How long have you had them? Tell us more!

The males are roughly 7"+ and females 4.5-5". Have had 4 months. I have four. Lost a female. WC from Little Africa Aquatics and Valley Aquatics. Did some researching prior to purchase but still learning these guys. Has taken up til now to settle in and color up. But they are featherfins which explains the long acclimation time. Considered selling but glad that I didnt. Very good tank mates with fronts.

trying to get better with patience. This is a patience building hobby.
Now if I can just get a handle on impulse purchasing.

Very cool fish... and one I've not tried.

I've heard issues with them (kind of like Fronts) freaking out and knocking into decorations.
