[cichlidboy671]

ok i know alot of people dont like hybrids but i was just wondering what whooooooould whold breed with each other lake malwi species
like a yellow lab will breed with stuff liek that

To tell the truth I wouldn't be surprised if almost all the cichlids could breed with each other. It doesn't happen often with say a yellow lab and a peacock, but I wouldn't be surprised if it could.

Honestly the only real way to make sure that a fish is pure is to just have species tanks.

(A prime example is the Fryeri, mine wants to breed with anything in the water...)

Unfortuantly it happens all to often, my female yellow lab just happens to be a slutbag.

Most mbuna will interbreed if opportunities with thier own species are limited.

Tons of Malawis are capable of interbreeding.
