Name: Protomelas Tiaeniolatus Namalange (red empress) (male)
Age: 1.5 yrs (march 2003)
Experience: I have been watching these guys grow for 1.5 yrs now. Man they take a long time to colour up. This is the dominent male and as you can see he still has not reached full colour. He is in my 65 gal with one female and 8 of his fry. They give approx 25-50 fry per mouth ful.
Name: Nimbochromis Venustus
Age: approx 1 yr (Sept 2004)
Experience: I used to have a pair of these when I first started. I decided to get back into them. I have a colony of 13. I am note sure of the male/female ratio. They have not breed for me yet but I am sure it will not be long.
Name: Protomelas sp New Green Metallic
Age: approx 1yr (sept 2004)
Experience: I have 7 of these guys (3 male/ 4 female). They have bred once and I got 8 fry. I have never seen these before and bought them to see what they were like. I am very happy with the way they coloured up and their temperment. They are hard to photograph and I will try to add a better pic.
