Cyphotilapia frontosa "7 stripes" Kigoma WC breeding group

[PISCES]

Very young WC breeding group, alpha male is 16 cm long, females size ranges 12-14 cm long, sub dominant male is 14 cm long. 6 spawns occurred already - less than month & a half since I put them in this tank.

Love the mask on their faces

Really nice - 7 stripes aren't the showiest Fronts but are really cool looking.

Do leleupi ever go missing in there? Fronts can be predatory...

Hi Matt.
I think each variant is unique on it's own.
Still 8 Leleupi since I put them Actually the Leleupi were the first to introduced into the aquarium, the Kigoma entered the tank almost 2 months after, I think its the best way to combine any small-medium size cichlids with Frontosas.

Stripping the smallest female(12 cm) in the group, held the spawn quite well -
