And if Boxermom and I split shipping, anyone else in the Greater Chicago area maybe... :mrcool: :grats:

Rocker, they are beautiful! Growing so fast and their markings and color, wow, for such young fish they look absolutely stunning.

I'm brand new to this forum & must say that I'm amazed at this thread. I've never seen such great pics & vids of breeding & fry development of any species on any board. I am so impressed. Congrats & great work on yr babies. They're adorable!

I'd seriously consider having one. Would one be OK in a 15G (UK) for the time being until I could rehouse my malaws and keep it in a 40G?

Yeah it is apt :) Got the river in the garden as well. Spend most of the winter actually living IN water - flaming flooding :roll:

Be grateful if you could keep us posted. Could make you a tidy little earner :)

Definately let us know if they get around to good size. I'm sure it would be easier on both you and the fish to sell them locally, but if it works out to send some to the states, know we are here!

I'd have some reservations about the water chemistry differences.. but you never know until you try, eh?
