Great work Mel. If you decide to sell/trade any of the fry please let me know. Been wanting a group of these again. 
WOW! They're fantastic! It's good to see I'm not the only one who keeps stalsbergi!
I'm gonna burden you with questions now! What size are they (male and female)? Is this the first time breeding, if not what size were they to first breed? How do you limit the aggro, I may have ended up with all males because mine are SO aggressive!? Finally, best way to sex them?
Sorry for all the Q's.

The male is about 5 inches and the female is around 3. The temperature is 80 degrees and this is the first spawn. As with most cichlids the best way to handle aggression is to keep
the fish with other similar capable fish, lots of hiding places and big tanks with room to flee...As for sexing them males grow much faster and larger then females and also develope the white ring on the tip of the caudal more completely.
