neolamprologus

My new colony has recently really ramped up. I don't think I reported these previously, but please check and let me know if this is a duplicate report since I had Multis a few years ago too. Sent from my iPhone using MonsterAquariaNetwork app

I've had several spawns from this pair of Neolamprologus pulcher. They've been in a 40 breeder with some other predatory Tangs so not many fry survive. I put them into a 20 long about 2 weeks ago to see if I could save a batch and apparently there was a new batch of eggs inside the cave I...

Free swimming 1-2-16. 40 Breeder. Feeding decapsulated brine shrimp and 100micron golden pearls.

Just snapped this one (in the prone position on my basement floor because the 33 long is on the bottom of the rack). The little baby staring at the camera had me cracking up.

A pair from the batch of Neolamprologus pulcher juvies I got at an auction (originally from Mike) has finally spawned. I siphoned out a small cloud of fry this evening since the pair is kept in a community tank with some hungry Altolamprologus.

Here's another spawn I'm a bit late reporting....I noticed Neolamprologus leleupi wigglers on Jan 7th.

I pulled a batch of these out of their cave about two weeks ago. I went ahead and removed them since they were in a pretty rough community tank with a comp and a bunch of Vics....not a conducive environment for raising fry. I've had them in a Marina hang-on breeder box. They absorbed their...

Does anyone have a group or kept these guys before? I saw a pair once at H.O.T. but didn't have tank space at the time. I see Dave's Fish has them in stock. The ones at H.O.T. were a very rich orange like N. Leleupi but most pictures online show them to have a less saturated orange color.

Anyone breeding these? Read an old article in TFH about these guys, sounds very interesting. Having a hard time deciding what direction to go with an up and coming empty 50g.:wacko: Open to ideas!

I've brought some of these to club meetings last spring, I recently cleared ALL fry from my adult tank to a rearing tank and the fish have respawned completely. I believe that what I have in the tank is three females and one male. Take a look at the video for an idea of what I am dealing...

...now tell me how not to kill them! (my only experience with substrate spawners is altolamprologus calvus, which are just easy all around....) It was a group of four about 1-1.25" (maybe 1.5" at the MAX). I'm assuming these will pair off and kill the other two unless I separate them when I...

Are the eggs of neolamprologus brichardii an opaque white? Is it common for them to lay eggs on the roof of a clay pot? Will one of the mating pair tend the eggs, looking like its kissing or cleaning them? I ask because I have two N. brichardii in my 20 long that I picked up at Aquafest, and...

I bought this pair at the last PVAS auction. I looked in the tank the other day and spotted the usual swarm of fry around the parents. Meanwhile, the Metriachima herteropictus female has been holding eggs for almost two weeks. She ought to be ready to release them soon.
