malawi_luver Posted February 20, 2005 Report Share Posted February 20, 2005 Well yellow tail aceis are mouthbrooders... And Brichardi are cave spawners which form colonies Look up some stuff on those things and you can find them... I think betta splendids are bubble nest builders and the male will build one and the female will tip underneath and themale will litterally squeeze the eggs outta her into the bubble nest Garrett Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

African_Fever Posted February 20, 2005 Report Share Posted February 20, 2005 I think you're looking for Ameca splendens; doing a search with the correct name on google may come up with the info you're looking for, and I'm pretty sure that they're livebearers (like a guppy). Cichlid-forum.com should have all the info you need on your Pseudotropheus sp.'acei' and Lamprologous brichardi's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ABwildrose Posted February 20, 2005 Report Share Posted February 20, 2005 The male ameca splendens has a yellow edge on his back tail. If you have a male and a female, nature will just take its course. They are livebearers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raven Posted February 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 21, 2005 The ameca splendids dont have any yellow on them.... maybe they are to young yet? Ones tail is darker then the other and the lighter one has a yellowish tinge. I havent had time to read the other info, i will after i get of work.
