got these 2 today. have seen them grow up at the lfs over the last year or so. finally decided to give them a more interesting life.
herotilapia multispinosa - or rainbow cichlid as the sign said on the lfs tank .
AC profile for Rainbow cichlid
hope i got a pair. the male is supposed to have pointier fins but all the fish in the tank looked like they had been nipping each others point off. so to a certain extent, the entire group looked female. but these two were very different in coloration, and since they were released in my big tank, they've hung together constantly.
a little flat stone in a quiet corner should get me some eggs but with 2 bumble bee cats in the tank, i'm not sure if the parents will be able to guard them while they sleep.
