For some reason he is not fully barred up like the last two times...and they have been lip locked most of the day. A little different than the other 2 times but theres still a mess of eggs.

What an Awesome pair! You should post these on the cichlid of the month thread started by FreshwaterPredator. Simply stunning! Let me know if you ever want to sell these.:) Keep us updated on these two.
 
Congrats on the spawn, they're a gorgeous pair. On a side note, they seem to be panting in the first video...low oxygen maybe? Or maybe out of breath from all the liplocking perhaps...
 
I did post them in that festae month thread :D

There is a line if I ever sell this pair...but I dont think thats ever going to happen lol. I will be selling the fry tho...and trying to ship this time.

They are panting becasue they have been lip locking since I got to work and have not stopped. Its a little different than the other 2 times...the lip locking usually came on after the fry were swimming for a while. He is not fully barred up either...dont know what the deal is this time.
 
Great Looking pair!! Really loving that male he is awesome! How big is he, 12"?
 
By far my favorite pair of Festae on MFK...Both the male and female are just amazing. The trailers on that male are insane. Got the same question as fishluvr...how big are both of them now?
 
Thanks yall...I love them too...when he is in his breeding dress like that it's hard for me to pick which one looks better.

I haven't tried to measure really since I got them. When I got them he was about 11" that was a year ago. Looking at some old vids of then I think he has grown...I'll have to try to measure him...but I'm not going to net him. That clay pot in there is a 12" pot for refference.
