I doubt if the males are 4", the females are maybe an inch less. They thoroughly searched the tank for the wrigglers that I missed, and are now taking turns tending to a nice little group w/in the nest. Very nice fish..

I saw that; he also has them on his site for $35ea. I brought a couple of bags to the last auction, along w/ a adult male barbatus and some togolensis killies. I didn't hang around so I don't know what they went for, hope they had some good bidding (coffee/cake $ for the mtgs). They're nice fish, very active.

Here's a shot of the male w/ his little shoal. The fry readily take baby brine

Altogether? I have the ones that I took out, his, are gone. They were gathering them up last night, but, this morn -nothing. I'm seeing tubes, so they're going to spawn again... Would you like a pair? other than eating hundreds of offspring they're very nice fish...
