Frontosas ...if all the tanks you have are the ones in your sig 55,40 etc, then you don't have a tank for them

To be able to give you any advice, post some pictures of the named fish, prices vary on size, quality of the fish and so on.
 
thanks, I was just curious. if I remember right he told me he took them to a LFS for store credit
 
The only fish that are really worth anything are the Frontosa. Don't know what a zebra hap is got a scientific name? The rest of the mbuna espicially the hybrids are pretty cheap. My LFS will just take mbuna off somebody for free.
 
cull the hybrids, use them for feeders. Don't raise them they will end up breeding again and end up causing problems for the hobby. the fronts are woth $, some of the others like labs are cheap and easy to breed. I wouln't put all the diffrent fish in 1 tank, better split them up according to lakes. bshow
