I know hybrids are frowned uppon but my pair laid eggs last night. Male is a Hemichromis Frempongi and the female is a Hemichromis Fasciatus. Both fish are around 4-5". Laid about 100 eggs or so. Hoping to grow a few of these out to see the awesome redness comes out of them. I'll try to post a vid on youtube within a day or so.
 
Dragonball, I have a pair of WC hemichromis Fasciatus. This pair is around 9-11". I've had them since last may. I bug all my LFS for 5 spot species. One of them were able to bring some in. Very rare though. I haven't seen them available in the US. I picked the female up in this vid from a local fish forum (WA). I knew this guy was into the 5 spot species. I happened to message him asking if his friend ever got his H. Elongatus to breed. He messaged me back saying he was switching to salt water so he needed to get rid of the Fasciatus. 3 days after I picked her up, this pair started forming. Fry might be free swimming tomorrow. I hope these babies have awesome colors!

I am currently getting rid of my last batch of fry for my H. Fasciatus pair. I have around 50 fry that are 1" right now. I e sold the rest to LFS and local cichlid keepers.
