Leleupi tankmates

[verbal]

I got 2 F2 "orange" leleupi from the PVAS auction. I think for the near term they are going to have to be in a community tank.

Would they work with Labidochromis chimusulae and Copadichromis borleyi?

Jesse how big are they. If under 2", they are OK for now. If bigger, you need to provide them their own quarters. Just my 2 cents

Jesse, I have had Leleupi with Mbuna before and it worked.
Now what I mean by "worked" was that there was no aggression...but there was also no breeding.
My Leleupi co-existed with very large Yellow Labs.

This is an old pic from many years ago...

I've had a leleupi kicking around my growout Malawi haps/peacocks/mbuna for some time now. He does fine.

Like those guys said, when they start breeding, things may get interesting.
