remove everything in tank and put a divider in the middle with all fish on one side. net and check every fish and put them on the empty side. 1 gallon buckets for any holder to strip right away to get her back into the tank, less stress. each holder gets her own bucket. never mix fry or eggs until fully developed.
@Charles Davis I’m new to tropheus. I currently have Katanga red rainbows. Any tips for me so that I can raise my fish successfully? I would truly appreciate your advice. Thanks!
At the beginning it appeared to be bloat but it was unresponsive to Metro treatments. Than some fish were advancing into popeye and some were getting Dropsie . Only thing that helped were 90% water changes. Tried many different antibiotics with no luck.
@@charlesdavis3481 thank you. Is it correct to say that Tropheus moori Nkonde would be a more "solid" green rather than the "striped" green of Tropheus murago green? Do you sell and ship to Europe?
@@roscelt When Nkonde is charged up, it is a solid yellow iridescent, I wouldn't compare it to a Tropheus sp. maculatus Mulunguzi (green murago). Both are beautiful species. Sorry I do not ship.
All Breeder tanks have a Fluval FX5 or FX6 running on them. Frontosa breeders have 2 of them. 27 of them running currently. Everything else is sponge filter only.
it is clear from scientific research that for fry the most important part of life is life in the mouth of the mama, special hormones develop (it has a huge impact on the life of a further fish life ), in such breeding as you show here you make fish "disabled"
Love tropheus but haven’t kept them since 94. All the colony’s look great.

You mentioned that you unfortunately loss several Ilangi. What problem(s) did you experience?

What are those in the tank at 4:30?
those are Frontosa Burundi fry
How many variants do you currently keep and where are you located ?
25 groups of Tropheus and 4 groups of Frontosa. Laketanganyikacichlids.com is where to find nice Tangs.
What is the variety that appear green in colour at 1m 18s (sounded like ikondi)?
Tropheus moorii Nkonde

do you sell them??
At what age / size trophues breed ?
And size of aquriem needed?
2 years old is a good average
@@charlesdavis3481 and how you can gender it ?
@@sjkhan35 Venting is the most reliable way. But I don't worry about ratio unless there is an issue.
Are your tanks running on only sponge filters?
All Breeder tanks have a Fluval FX5 or FX6 running on them. Frontosa breeders have 2 of them. 27 of them running currently. Everything else is sponge filter only.
At what size is it safe to transport Tropheus
1.25"
Do you sell fry?
If you have a facebook account you could look up a group called "Everything Tropheus". I'm Chad Davis an admin and creator of the group
😍👍
are you selling some ?

Bless the fish stop stripping them do it the natural way
and let all the fry get eaten. No I have to strip them or I wont have any fry left. I have gotten to this point by learning lessons on the way.

Prove it. There is no scientific research that has found stripping fry has any negative side effects. You opened your mouth, now back it up.
@@charlesdavis3481 that was pretty aggressive response asshole
