Texas X Midas

[jeremoose]

Hey all, just thought I'd pop in and let you all know that I recently introduced my 11 year old Texas Cichlid into the 230g community tank and she has IMMEDIATELY paired off with my largest male Midas. Didn't know this pairing was possible until I looked it up and if it works out, I'm hoping to have some viable eggs in a couple days!

Will keep you all updated if things progress beyond shaking/dancing for each other and the female Texas cleaning the substrate off the bottom.

I would move them they might try to kill everything but good luck hope it works out

Sorry for the awful pictures, just took these on my phone in the past 5 minutes. Impossible to get them to stop moving (recomendations for a decent camera to take fish pics with that won't break the bank?)
