I have mbunda chiclids and they have had offspring as well. One night I notice a small head pop out from under a rock, then another. I watched these two grow for the past 2 months and they are about an inch and a half. i now have about 6-8 more fry that I raise in the same tank as the others. I sort of figures out how to raise them on accident-- I have two rock structures in my tank and there are a lot of little holes and cracks that the large chiclids can get into-- the babies sort of figured out how to stay away from the bigger fish on their own. Every day I would feed them extra cube of brine shrimp so that the babies would get some to eat. I never had any experience with breeding up until now but this system worked for me -- good luck, it is truly enjoyable watching YOUR own fish grow.
