not sure the temp as my thing just broke and i have hard water and I will try to post pics later
Hey corn, I haven't had a chance to upload any vids. I just moved my pair to a new house so they're a little stressed. Both look great when I left. Almost all of the fry survived and my pair colored right back up as soon as I put the fry back into the tank. 1 more day of moving and I'll try to get good vids of them. BTW I hear there might be some frempongi in town so keep an eye out.
They are beautiful! I breed Hemichromis Fasciatus back in 2005 and this species has always been one of my favorites. Really watch them very carefully because when my spawned the female became very aggressive towards the male and after about a week the male snapped and killed her while I was at work. Great job with them and keep us updated
Move went good. Most off the larvae survived. Fry are now free swimming now. Feeding microworms. New vid.

Just took most of the fry out about 20min ago. Left about 10 in with the parents. Put the rest of the fry into a 50g breeder. Hoping to get another batch. We'll see. My water PH in this house is 7.6-7.8.
Water parameters for the first batch
Tank Size = 75g
PH = 6.8-7
Amonia = 0
Nitrites = 0
Nitrates = 0
Temp = 76
