That's good to hear. Good luck with them. I'm just glad that more and more people are getting into Victorian cichlids on MFK.

Here are some pics. These guys are tiny yet so only time will tell. Also would liek to pick up like 5-10 more of these. Tank mates are undecided yet but really thinking of going with a group of 10-15 Xyistichromis 'Kyoga Flameback' or a similar sized group of Pundamillia Nyereri 'Makobe Island'.

Very nice. They will grow into beauties. Where did you get these guys at?

What are the odds of the Mutumbi Hunter and the Pundmilla Nyereri hybridizing? Same with teh Hunters and the Kyoga Flamebacks? On a local forum there is a guy saying the wil hybridize. I figure since they share nothing the same chances are pretty slim. Not the same body shape, colorings, breeding dress, diet, etc...
