Very nice looking frontosa. I have Mobas, Burundis, and Mpimbwes. My WC Mpimbwes are my favorites. They are more active and not as shy as the others. I just purchased them and already have 3 females carrying. I stripped one female last night and got 60 eggs off of her. I think I stripped the eggs to early though, so they probably won't do well.

At least you know there will be more..but i hope these make it.. let us know......good luck

The 60 were all bad, but another female had a tiny batch and they are now wigglers with the big egg sack. I think I screwed up by stripping too early, but that was my first batch and it is a learning experience.

Well the last batch is now growing up well and moved into a 10 gallon tank. I think I have another female about ready to breed, so I will keep my fingers crossed.

They are still kicking. I'm suprised how slow they grow. Although I'm sure Its impatience on my part as well.

This is a great spot to ask questions and share. Do not forget that if you are wanting to show off your fish there is a thread in the African Cichlid Media Lounge to do so. Thanks all and ask away!
