did you see that male in video 2 just come flying in at the second female and push her out of the way?

sweet stuff.

Hopefully she holds full term in the aquarium setting.

I have witnessed vic's breeding in bags before, is that a first?

Jimmy, major news indeed!
Congrats on the Neochromis.:coool!:

[dbondi]

Wow thats great! Are they wild or raised in Germany?

ive bred the sp. 44s. Are the other vics as prolific as these guys?
What else did your pick up? Id love to get my hands on some Harpagochromis.

You need to post videos of each seperate species you acquiered! I absolutely love vics.

[s10jimmy]

I pulled the female that was holding since the first along with one that spawned on the 16Th . :becky:They hold for 21 days so I wanted to get her out of the 240 a few days early , just in case ! As I dropped her in to one of the 30 g tanks I use for for fry tanks and she spit out a wiggler with the egg sack still attached .:runnningaround: She still has the rest in her mouth . I'm going to wait till the 21st and strip her of the rest of the fry .
