Digging thru some older pics. Here's a couple of my old stud P. n. Python Is.



Kinda miss that old guy now

Well I anxiously awaited 14 days for my first xystichromis phytophagus that was holding. I stripped her today and got 9 healthy free swimmers at about 1/4". Not bad for a first clutch!

[Jeff F.]

Well, I got up this morning and my dominant male xystichromis phytophagus had on his Sundays best dress. I immediately dimmed the tank lights and threw on some Marvin Gaye. Two hours later I had a holding female!!!




Looks like I'm gonna have fry coming out my ears. Tank #10 coming soon!

Very cool pics Jeff and nice video deadman.

Here's a couple more.

I got some fry from Kevin B. a while back and I've had them growing out in a 10g. This week I started to see a little color developing so I moved them into a 29g last night. Immediately I have dominant and sub-dominant males that have stepped up and it shouldn't be anytime until the boys are "gittin bizzy". They will NOT sit still right now so it's very hard to get good pictures but here goes.......

Xystichromis sp. "Kyoga flameback" male 1.5"




I'm really excited to see what becomes of these guys. They're showing sings of being absolutely beautiful!

Mbipia cf. lutea "spotbar" yala swamp(female) 1.25"

I would like to make a correction to this post. This is my first time working with mbipia cf. lutea and I just assumed that the females were the ones that looked obviously different. Well, yesterday I saw what looked like one of the males holding so I did some investigating. It turns out that there was a mix up from the dealer I got them from. The 4 "blotchy" ones are actually Paralabidochromis sp. "red fin piebald". Mistakes happen so I'm calling it lucky that the two species are different enough that there shouldn't be any inbreeding.
Here's an actual picture of the female holding. It's my first mbipia spawn so I'm pretty excited.


My first successful spawn will be gifted to Kevin B. for the beautiful fry he gave me. Start setting up a tank!

Here's mine:



I love how the colors are so varied.

Excellent!

They look great! The ones I have are about 2" and are looking very similar to yours. And what a coincidence, I'm moving my kyoga flameback juvies into a 29 gallon. Nice job working with them Jeff.

P.S. This is Tydus on Monsterfishkeepers.
