Pundamilia Nyererei Surprise

A few weeks ago I got some of these at the club auction for 5 bucks and with nowhere to really put them I just dumped into a 29 gallon tank until I could set up a tank with the ideal water parameters. I really didn't finish setting up that tank (55 gallon) until yesterday and today was moving day.

The first fish that I transferred was a female carrying a brood in her mouth. What I thought was fish tank debris in the net was in fact a whole bunch of good sized fry. They scattered all around around but a few got sucked up by the filter. At this point I'm assuming that the rest have gotten into the rockwork that I set up for them.

We will see if I have any juveniles emerging from the rockwork in the coming days/weeks. I'm sure the fry will hide out until they feel that it is safe to come out in the open area.

We keep you posted.
