Placidochromis Phenochilus Tanzania

First topic message reminder :

Well I've been working with this group for 2 years now and they have giving me plenty of fry I keep them in a 125g tank with a sand bed and flat holey rock that they love to breed in. Here are a few pics that Id like to share of the males.

This picture here is of my dominant male who was going a bit to fast for me lol

Really nice fish kinsol !!!

Thanks I have allot of juvies growing up so come this summer I wanna start shipping.

Really nice fish. Beautiful colors. I wish I had room for some.

hey man,I would love to get some juvies off you.I usually dont do shipping,but for these fish I'll make an exception and pray alot!!!I LOVE these fish.I had a pair once,but a chlorine spike did em in.It changed the way I do my water changes,always doubling or tripling the amount of de-chlor is the only way to go for me since.I miss those 2 alot and have never seen them in stores,I got mine from a local fish farm thats now out of biz.

Jake Ill PM you.

by far my favorite looking fish. almost look fake

I love this Hap and want some, trying to decide if I am going to start up a new tank for them or add them to my 125. I have a 180gl that should be up and running this fall. In my 125 I have 8 fonts Kigoma, 3 Yellow Comps and 3 Moorii Blue Dolphins, 2 bristlenose. They are all being grown out the largest font is 3 1/2 to 4 1/2 inches. Do you think I should wait?

awesome fish.. definitley want a one in my sisters all male show tank!...

Bubba these fish are very mellow so they should do good depending on the size you get them as for the Dolphins I've owned a few that have gotten aggressive towards other haps in my tank.

Cajun you cant go wrong with one of these there just BEAUTIFUL to look at.

So do you think I should wait till I get my 180 set up or add them to my 125 for now. Everybody gets along fine in the tank so far, a couple of my fonts are the biggest. My concern is I don't want to stunt anyones growth with too many in the tank, they are all being grown out.

Looking to get some around the 2" to 3" range.

Sorry dont have any that size im sure if you post that your looking for some someoone might have some that size, for the growth part Water Changes.

Those Phenochilus are really beautifull!!! They are among the best looking ones I have ever seen!!! Really nice!!!

hey labridens do you have any fish pictures ?

I love these guys!! They have to be one of my most favorite fish! Good lookin fish there!!! :)

Thank you I enjoy starring at these guys.
have some White lips also but these guys are more impressive to me.

Nice Fish, I love it when they get that size, Knowing how slow and long it takes its really worth the wait. Enjoy!
