Not on Facebook sorry pal, I have my two elongatus that won't breed, maybe he will slot in somewhere.
How big are yours, o thought max wS 9 inch but I've heard you had up to 12?

What do you have your Elongatus with? Did you ever try some drift wood and floating plants?

They sprint very quickly to around 6 - 7" in the first year. Grow pretty quickly. Fasciatus is mean as hell too!

Everything I keep is mean as hell. My wife and I have a deal. It can be aggressive just as long as it isn't capable of removing a digit.

What kind of water conditions do you keep these in? Neutral or alkaline.

I dont have a pm option on mobile. I have a big money foundation repair going on in my downstairs so all but one of my tanks are in storage for a few months. Once I get a tank up in a permanent room I will contact you about some if you don't mind.

Faciatus I think, about 6" now.

Hemichromis Fasciatus for sure! Good job!

Pretty chill in the 300g. Equal in size to my elongatus male who is about 3yrs old now.

Hemichromis Elongatus looks to be an "Ayatto" strain
