<--Need a nice sized tank. Talk to jackd and Ferncockatoo dwarf
????colony of fronts
<-- Need a 150G or bigger.On a side noteputt all fry / juvies / grow outs in your smaller tanks. I would re arrange your tanks and try to do all the same. For example. 10G, 20G long, 40G breeders , 120G, That way you can have more tanks, looks more organized , which = more space and more fish ;0)
Just take a dddeeeeeep thought about what you are really wanting to accomplish and then do it. Get the fish you wan't and make sure you do the research. DON'T just start adding fish b/c they are being sold as breeders and you think , Oh cr@p I can get some fry outta of this. Research what you want and buy large groups that way spawning occurs frequenlty and offten. If you lose a male or a few females no big deal you still have plenty. If you have trios and pairs, stuff can happen at any time. Also when it's breeding time stuff gets a litte hot, fish stress, fish die ect ect. You just never can pre dict what is going to happen. Always better to have a large group of a species. Finally, which you already know but I must say. NO mixing species that are similiar. For example. Victorians, Mbuna , Peacocks. = Hybrids , Which =
I would start looking for bigger tanks also. Once you get organzied you will see how much more you can have. 2 years ago I was doing the same exzact thing and it cost $$$$$.
