Nics a plenty!

The mighty brood of Nicaraguan cichlids is growing like stink!

Mom and dad are still very shy, but attentive.

In other news:

- finally switched on the Fluval FX 5
- about 30 BGJDs all growing well
- sold the tinfoils, firemouths and spare HRPs weekend before last
- the Ancistrus trio have spawned, so hopefully I'll have baby suckers soon

Introduction

I have always been fascinated by cichlids. They are among the most stunningly beautiful of fishes; they come in all shapes and sizes (there is a cichlid to suit everyone); and they have some seriously awesome behaviour. Since I started keeping fish 15 years ago I have kept and bred several species, but I never had enough tanks to house all the individual pairs I wanted (and their subsequent fry). In April '08, I was lucky enough to have a space-heated fishroom built into the garage conversion my girlfriend and I were having done. This diary is my way of keeping track of all my fish breeding projects. I hope you find it informative!
