Here's a very good article on how to pull off an all-male malawi tank. http/www.cichlid-forum.com/articles/all-male_malawi.php

Been doing it for years - it's not as difficult as you might think. That article is very good though - the key is to start with juveniles and be prepared to return fish when the need arises.

it's not as difficult as you might think but be prepared to return fish when the need arises.

I would like to give it a try sometime but for the moment I am not prepare to travel the long distances required to return the fish to LFS that I trust. There are other LFS closer to me but none that I would buy fish from and certainly none that I would return healthy fish too or any sort of animal for that matter.

I hate taking them back, especially if i've had them for some time. I'm lucky that the only LFS i use is 15 mins away, even with Manchester traffic.

I`d like to try it sometime but I think you`d miss some of the fun with no breeding.

Ferris I was in your favourite shop last weekend looked like they`d had an accident with the bottom deck of tanks on the African section.
