Heres a pic of her a week ago, she held for around 28days......heres a pic of her bad quality though.... And here is the end result today, she let go 24 bubs Now I can start to build up my colony which ive been waiting to do, heres my breeders, another bad pic...they dont like me coming too close with my camera though cheers Christian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi m0oks, They live in a standard 4 with lots of rocks they share the tank with a pair of bristles and 8 boesmani rainbows, the rainbows have definatly made the msobos much more brave in terms of them not hiding and not getting as easily spooked.

CThompson Posted November 29, 2006 Share Posted November 29, 2006 The females are looking very yellow. Is that just the way the photo came out or are they that colour? If so, what are you feeding them? My Msobo are more orange than yellow, which is what I thought their correct (?) colour is. Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craig Hi Craig, The girls are deffinatly orange.....The photos are not the best quality like I stated there was no light on above the tank, they are very orangey when the light is on and the photo was taken around 3 meters away from the tank...they are fed mainly on nls vegie 8 and frozen brine shrimp I like to avoid tetra bits / colour bits....umm yeah maybe you could post some pics of yours Craig Cheers Christian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
