i have 4 female albino convicts and i was hoping one of them would be a male, but no luck. so recently, i picked up a male firemouth cichlid, he was like $1.67.

any chance they'll make hybrids? all the cichlids are showing nice colors and the females appear blueish around their stomach (im guessing thats the eggs?) and their turning really dark red in that area also.

how can i encourage them to pair up?
 
got pictures in my gallery of babies that my firemouth and black convicts when they hooked up... only kept 3 of the fish until they were 9 months old... at 9 months they had the body shape of the firemouth and the markings of the convict... the firemouth was male and the convict female... after about the 4 or 5 time of them breeding i had to separate them to keep them from breeding so much...
 
Nice Clowns in your gallery Sypher. How big are they now (both clowns and hybrids)? Do you have any recent pictures of them?
 
sorry no recent pictures because hybrids are gone... as for the clowns they are my buddies Hawkeye's... was showing them off on another thread... btw how do i get rid of pictures that are in my gallery... oh yeah the clowns where 24 inchs in length and my friend had to get rid of them which he is now sorry that he did... :(
