Cichlids to breed in a 75

[justarn]

yeah most will get nasty at some point, keyholes are very mellow? and they can go into most community tanks i think? so would widen the market for selling the fry.

Keyholes are a great option ,but they stress easy...one advantage is they are hardy when it comes to water params

Cryptoheros Sajica


I don't own the above fish or photo.

Sajica are perfect! I have a male and a female and they hate each other. They are tough like convicts, grow slow and max out at like 5-6 inches. They are territorial, but they chase fish away for like 2 inches. They look awesome when they're adult. only problem is they grow slow.

I like sajicas but IME they're just as if not more common than cutteris. I'm looking for something I can make a profit off the fry. I like the cichlasoma idea, maybe I need to broaden my search for more than just cichlids.

I can imagine being that you're in Australlia. In my area it's quite the opposite, can't go to a store without seeing some amatitlania, Cryptoheros, or Archocentrus type fish

Defenitely, the colors are outrageous! Especially on the male.

Got any pics of your oblongum, festaedan?

About how much money per fry could I make off the Cutteri I have now? 4 of the fry are about 1/6" and the rest are <1/8"
