Abby -- you want one of the "wives" back?
Rainbow Cichlid drama!!!
- Thread starter hollyfish2000
- Start date
gotta get it going before she changes her mind
thanks, but not really - planning to move the couple to the 37, and leave the remaining male to recover from his wounds - got really beat up by the breeding couple.

I can take the other female and see if she'll pair with one of my other males. I'm interested to see how 2 pair will fare in a 75g.
