Awesome Thai! Best of luck with this. This may require a regularly updated journal with LOTS of pictures

Will do!

Randell gave me a macro green female too.

Little girl is in really bad shape. I should document the recovery process for her too.

best wishes man.

If all goes well, you will get a free group after I build a decent group for me.

If I fail, they will go back to you. I will not sale them like Brian did your Dubs.

good luck on the breeding thai, but do you really want to breed the parents with the babies when they grow up???

I'm praying just to get a batch for two before they kill each other!

So I got my hands on a pair of Petrochromis sp. Macroganthus Rainbow "Red Dorsal."

From what I know Laif first imported these fish for the first time in the summer of 2008. They then popped up again recently.

I'm going to see if I can build a colony up from just this pair.

So far, the pair has been in my 125g lufubu tank for a week. Surprisingly, aggression is very low. I think it's having all these ditter fishes in the tank really helps. I have seen the male shaking a the female a number of times. However, the female is out of condition and needs to put on some body mass before she can breed. So for now she is not showing any interest in him.

I'll post pictures whenever I can. I'm excited to see how this works out. I'm done this with tropheus no problem....I'm praying for some luck with these petros.
