There are some reports that keepers were able to keep the less aggressive species in stable groups (at least before breeding) which would help spread out the aggression but this method does not work for sacrimontis in particular as they are too aggressive.
I think they will remain a possibility. A reason I am concerned is that I have read that this species is like sacrimontis which is reported to be more aggressive and fragile than other pelvicachromis. I'm not sure on how true that statement is.
I've been interested in working with some wild type pelvicachromis. I like the look of Pelvicachromis Pulcher Ndonga but I'm not sure about their care. Would this fish be similar to the typical Nigerian Red Pulcher or would it not be a good wild type krib to start with.
I am really in love with the colors of this fish. Do you think i can keep a colony of them in a 40 breeder or 75? I've heard of some people breeding them in a colony setup in a larger tank. If i can't I'd have a spare 20 to plop them in.
How are tankmates? I'm thinking some large bleeding...
