I should probably ask this question under another thread, but would they breed in this set up? More pointedly would any fry survive? Im keeping plenty of shrimp, corys and dwarf cichlids in this tank!

I do have seperate breeding tanks but will I be able to see if a female is ready to lay eggs? And should I move her and a male then or the whole shoal? Firsthand advice would be great, there is alot of generic reading out there, most of it conflicting! Also any recommended reading/links/threads I should check out?

Thanks,
Phil..

Ok I wont lie, now you guys have me worried, I’ll quarantine immediately when I get home, oddly enough its been about 2weeks and none of the three have died, the rest seem perfectly fine, fighting and displaying to no end!!

Would seachem pura-guard be ok?

No they are sick just cant figure out what it is or what to do about it.. these three haven’t eaten at all since i got them!

I will be posting soon under the relevant thread on just how the hell you guys actually get a decent pic of these fish

Its a shame to hear the hype around these fish is fading, In my country its just starting :roll:

Surprisingly none of the sick fish have died yet. umm could you suggest anything else Iv never seen that available here… do you think its parasites? they dont show any external symptoms? My first guess was malnutrition, but if they wont eat what can I do?
