Tropheus Caramba Red Bishops

They were sold but my buddy had pond issues, so I hung onto them. The ones I added are under an inch, significantly smaller than the majority in my tank. The only issue I'm having is needing extra food to make it to the little guys. I've beefed up on feeding and water changes since adding them

Thanks for the information!! Austin

Looks like they are getting close to "pumping" fry.

Once they get to pumping out fry I will do more to increase survival, but for now it's just not worth it

[ptran]

That's what I thought.

Lol no way. I've got over 70 fish in there and lava rock everywhere.. too much trouble for me

Courting and multiple females holding, but no sign of fry in the tank

I guess you don't like stripping them.

I need to get rid of some males!

I thought you sold them!! I'm glad you didn't, were those that you just added smaller than those that you already had? if so what size were the smaller ones? did you face any aggression issues?

I added two small F1 groups, one red species and one black species

I played with the NLS red when they were younger but didn't notice much difference. Any suggestions on a brand/type?
