Sarathoodon mozzambiques

Hells yes!
I have a group of 2 males and 4 females. I had to seperate my males from my females for a while because they'd spawn so often the females never had a chance to eat!
Which reminds me, if planning on a group of these fish for breeding, I strongly recommend either using an egg tumbler or waiting till the females are at least a good 4" before letting them hold. Otherwise they easily stunt, breeding early and missing out on all the food they should be getting during their younger age.
They're awesome. I have a thing for lippy fish!

do you still have any you don't want? Yeah i know about the stunting & growth thing I made a thread on another forum about size not equaling to maturity. they get about 12 inches if not stunted right?

Hate to reply late, was moving so I didn't have internet connection for a while.
No, I don't currently have extras and I'm too busy to save fry at the moment.
If not stunted mozambiques can reach upwards of 16" (some literature states 18 and even 20"). I believe 16" is closer to average as even nicely kept females can reach this size. Sexy bastards...

They breed like rabbit's, are very hardy and aren't too aggressive and they get very big about 15 inches. They are clumsy but they have alot of charm.
