JLake Posted April 10, 2010 Report Share Posted April 10, 2010 They are a great sand dwelling species. Beautiful shots. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
punman Posted April 10, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 10, 2010 Awesome!! Just ordered some from J.S. yesterday.Whats your m/f ratio? I bought 7 juveniles - gender unknown and it ended up that I had 4M and 3F. Would have preferred the opposite but the outcome could have been much worse. Who is J.S.?

searay Posted April 11, 2010 Report Share Posted April 11, 2010 J.S.--Jack Spencer. If I get too many females and not enough males maybe we can trade down the road.Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

punman Posted April 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2010 Yeah - Spencer Jack is where I got mine from. They started to colour up about a month after I got them. I'd trade you one of my males for a female if you seem short on males. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
searay Posted April 11, 2010 Report Share Posted April 11, 2010 Right on! What was the size when you got them and how fast was the growth rate? One month and color showing.Nice!!! What are you feeding.NLS and......? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
punman Posted April 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2010 They were 1.5 - 2 inches when I got them. They took 6 months to get to 3 inches. They get only NLS except the odd time I will throw in some live baby brine shrimp if I have hatched some for my cyprichromis fry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

African_Fever Posted April 11, 2010 Report Share Posted April 11, 2010 Wow, stunning colours and great pics! Are they in with your cyps? Congrats on the spawn, it's nice to finally start to see these fish somewhat readily available after being so hard to find for so long in the hobby.

punman Posted April 11, 2010 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2010 They are in with my cyps and compressiceps. It cost me $200 for the seven of them so I am happy to see some maturity and breeding activity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
