Quality could be better, but click "watch in high quality" to the bottom right- it makes a difference

Here is a short clip of Neochromis onmicaeruleus

Paralabidochromis chromogynos

Here is the 75 gallon tank with Lipochromis sp. "matumbi hunter". They decided to rip the horthworth apart so there are pieces floating around...

About 20sec into the movie a male in the left corner start flashing trying to lure a female down to his hideout.

Thanks guys :D

I love those Matumbi's! Nice videos Patrick, it gives us a better look at the way the fish are than just pics- really makes me want to get mine! Can you get any video of the Red Fin Piebalds? I'd love to see some footage of them.

I'll try to get some piebalds but I got a crappy light in that tank, yellowish and not very bright.

Well done!

If you can take videos of each of the species you have up on Gills 'n' Fins, you could embed some of the videos into the website as an extra "hook" for each variety...

Those are some amazing vics you have there. This is actually the first time that I have liked the rock kribensis. It is just so stunning from its colors. I really want them now. :D As for the kyoga flameback, I am just so envious of you. That is one good looking fish and probably my most favorite fish out there. How does it feel to own such magnificient victorians Patrick? Only if you were able to ship into the U.S, I would grab lots of kyoga flameback fry from you to improve my breeding stock.

I got a question Pat, when did your kyoga flameback start to mature and start coloring up(as in showing its amazing red color)?
