My Julidochromis Marlieri Have Fry!

[doresy]

My Julidochromis Marlieri have fry, well 3 survivors to be precise!

It's fun watching the parents protecting them. The fry are perfect minitures with all their markings.

Will post piccies if I can get some if you are interested?

I love these fish. I had a breeding group of really large adults once. I then changed the tank around and they gradually killed each other which I understand can happen with this fish if you disturb a breeding group or pair.

Lovely fish and great parents.

I've still got one of the young in my mostly Mbuna 5x2x2 and he's doing well.

Actually I also had a Marlieri and Dickfeldi pair up and produce fry. I miss my Julie's

Actually, I wouldn't swear that I don't have a Marlieri and Dickfeldi combination!
