Ok i need some brain storming to see if there is anyway possible to get this to work. First in my 55 i have 5 white labs and 5 met ob blueberry slim. In my 125 i have 7 met zebra long pelvic, 6 ps perspicax orange caps, 5 lab hongi. I am trying to breed all these right now, but i have extra males i need to pull and was thinking about starting up an all male mbuna show tank. Now this is the question. Could i put the 2 groups from my 55 in my 125. Im not sure it would work for two reasons. 1 i would have 2 lab groups and 2 met groups and 2 im thinking the white labs would be to docile for some of the groups in there. Want your opinions please. Not a big deal if it wont work ill keep it the way it is.

Potential cross breeding comes to mind. Aggression too like you say.

Ok i thought there may have been a big enough difference in the appearance of females with the white lab vs lab hongi and met zebra long pelvic vs met ob blueberry. It was worth a try. I geuss ill take pics of my extra males and try to sell them. Tears rolling down my eyes.

speaking from experience, they will crossbreed proficiently.
