RE: N. Taenia

Hi all,
I was wondering if anyone had some Nanacara adoketa and if they were able to
breed them.
Seems like a very rare fish and hard to keep.
thanks

Colin,

Congratulations on your Nannacara taenia. I'm not surprised that you had few
problems with your 'thomasi' (Anomalochromis thomasi, not Nanochromis). It
might be larger than your taenia, but they are not really good at catching
fry.

well.

spit them out in the right place, is this normal? I've never seen it happen
before with other fish, they just seem to follow their mums about.
