Anyone have the paratilapia polleni fish and has been successful breeding them? If so what is your tank like? I have 3 pollenis, a big male and 2 smaller fish, idk if they are male or female. Anyways, are these fish also called "Starry Night". I love them, mine eat a ton of food and look like the fat kids in the tank.

I do know that it has been done but it is very difficult to achieve because the chiclids of madagascar tend to eat their eggs in captivity as soon as they are layed. It will be all out war if there is another male in the tank though. I currently have a bleekeri that i'm trying to find a reliable buyer for.
