Collection Point:   Katalamba

Genetic Line:   F1 First Generation

Year Acquired:   2024

Acquired a group of 5 young fish from Dave's Rare Fish in early 2024. A pair established within a few months and of course immediately began working to eliminate the other fish in the tank. Separated the pair into a separate tank to prevent casualties. There's no stopping a takeover unless you have a very large tank.

Species Spawned:   Yes

After moving the pair around a bit, they settled into a 28g lowboy tank with a 36"x18" footprint and have begun to spawn. Fry are pretty small but happy to munch on BBS or microworms.
