Stretchomatic Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 Hi Everyone, Im fairly new to this forum, but not to the Cichlid world... Ive just recently bought a small group of Neolamprologus Tretocephalus (1male to 4females) & although these guys look great by themselves, I wanted to know what fish would make good tank mates & wont ruin the chance of the trets breeding? Any advice would be great. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooder Posted September 28, 2011 Share Posted September 28, 2011 If they breed they will probably kill any other tank mates... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stretchomatic Posted September 28, 2011 Author Share Posted September 28, 2011 Currently have them in a 4foot tank but looking to replace a panel in my 6footer, before moving them into that. All five are around the 6-7cm mark & other than 1 BN theres nothing else... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trofius Posted October 2, 2011 Share Posted October 2, 2011 they do get cranky when they breed, but they also get along with anythis really, I find trets are actually pretty sooky compared to a lot of fish.. if they have room, they should be ok i imagine, but any other bluish or stripped fish could be looked on as a threat, as will any rockdweller types that come near their cave ....I would be most worried about the other trets that wont be part of the pair..., in a big enough tank he might serivce a few ladies... just remember they will bred fairly soon, ~7-8cm, And remember they will get big, f to about 10-12cm, m to about 12-15cm.
