Tonight I have a couple dozen free swimming fry from the Nanochromis sp. "Leza". I am assuming that ID is correct as it has been made by better minds than mine.
These are the fish acquired from Zack Wilson.
The spawn was classic Nanochromis, ending with little sesame seed looking eggs hanging (inside) off the the top of a 1" diameter clay tube about 4 inches in (deep). Mom guarded the eggs. Dad guarded the site.
The spawn was found on the 24th of October, the hatch took place on the 27th, the fry were first seen outside the tube on Sunday the 3rd of November. Mom and Dad continue the same roles.
Very soft water is kept at about 76 degrees (+-2). Tank mates include some S. American dwarves and (until tonight) a second pair of the same Nanochromis species. The tank is 36" x 12" x 12" = 30 gallon.
