Good job Tony, Mark has more expertise with these than me, but I would put her in either a breeding net in that tank, or empty out your existing tank into a 20l with a sponge filter.

Thanks Jon, I decided to give them a few more days before I start breaking down the tank. I'm really concerned that they will spit.....

They are so interesting to watch. These are the fish the kids have to check on everytime they come in the house. They have to see who is sidways, upsidedown, who is hiding where. Have them next to my recliner so I can watch too!

Update..... I found two Paracyprichromis Nigripinnis fry today while trying to move them. Can't believe it, this were their first time holding!

Congratulations Tony! On the baby fish and on your "new life"!!! Did you find any more babies? They are pretty big, so finding them is a little easier.

Mark, they didn't make it but, I will be better prepared the next time. By the way she is holding again!!! Just moved her to her own tank.

Good luck this time! I'm still waiting for something to happen with mine! Saw some "Practicing?" but nothing else!

Phil, Try feeding frozen brine shrimp or bloodworms a couple times a week. If you have frozen mysis shrimp, that would be even better. Tony, What else is in the tank that you moved her from?
