Update on my Festae Colony

[Freshwaterpredators]

Well i have narrowed down the ones i plan on keeping for my breeding projects. Im still looking for another bloodling or two but for now im content. please excuse the quality as its not very good and i didnt plan on posting this but its been a while so i thought what the heck. also the festae look a lil stressed from me moving some things around in their tank. I have a total of 7 festae, 1 male dovii, 5 clown loaches, out of the festae i have 1 F1 male @ 5.5" and the rest are wild from 3.25-5" which looks to me like 1 maybe two males then the rest females. Ill get some better videos when things settle down for them.

Beautiful fish!! I'm lucky enough to have one, but hopefully soon I'll have a nice breeding colony of my own. By far my favorite cichlid. Best of luck!

Thank you, Festae will and have always been my favorite with umbees running a close second.

Thank you bro the females are just now starting to get some nice reds, and that larger male is going to be a beast. Im almost thinking about putting him in a 55 by himself for a month or two and let the wild male have his chance first and allow the rest to catch up a little in size then pull the pair and put the larger male back in with the rest of the group. I just dont know if thats a good idea or not. And the song is "the River" by Good Charlotte

Awesome! I love when young Festae approach the 4" mark. That's when things start getting really interesting with their color and behavior. You have a nice group there. My little ones are barely over 2" now but they are growing and eating well. Keep up the excellent work.

Greata looking group you have there mate. If you love this stage of Festae then you will really love it when they have fry. My pair have just had their first batch and it's been awesome watching them raise the little ones.
