I couldn't quite tell which fish you were talking about. Could you please point them out? lol!

Thanks. Learned alot

Hey Rick thanks for all your great videos this was a good one I was wondering if you sell any of your females and if you ship your fish cuz you gotta buyer

Hello im new to the breeding thing...i have one chiclid thats been dig a cave in the sand....wont let anyone near it...and everyone else is all on the other side and is watching this one fish...could you tell me what is going on please?

im planning on getting blue dragon bloods red shoulders eureka reds and a few more and i wanna breed them and cross breed

Beautiful male cichlid!

amazing video rick

Great info thank you

Good information, thanks.

my babies always get eaten. Only 3 survived by hiding under coral til they got bigger.

Should you remove the fry with the mother while mouth brooding, or wait for her to release them and try to catch them?

What are the females that you have in the tank with the orange crisp

Hii just a quick question, isn’t white sand bad for them? I have like 6+ females to a few males and the males lost a bit of color and I was told it’s dominance and the sand reflecting

Is a 55 gallon tank too big for 1 zrock male and 3 female z rocks

I have a question...I'm just getting really into wanting to breed cichlids since I first fell in love with them this past year that I learned about them. When setting up to breed do I need to keep the different varieties of them separate? Will they breed with other variety if they are mixed in the same tank? For example if I were to breed the White Scolafi and breed the blue Johannis and breed red zebras. But I would want them to stick with their own color and breed together as the same varieties instead of mixing colors. Do I need to keep the three groups all in separate tanks? Or could I have them all in the same huge tank to breed without them mixing?

Hi Ricky: great vids!!! I live in Nashville and currently have Mbuna 90g. How do I know when they are breeding.

I have a dragon blood peacock cichlid but I'm still not sure if it's a male or female, I want to breed it with a electric blue cichlid to make a fish no one has

cool video !!

Hi. I have 2 male peacocks.. can I put 5 females in the tank with both males or should I get another tank and separate the 2 males, and give them both 5 females each?

Hey awesome channel, KZfaq reccomended this today in 2019! How large do you think the breeding size is in your experience?

Hey Rick Good video can you tell if its a male when its small 1 at inches?

Would putting one male and one female in a single tank work?

Hi Ricky I am just getting into peacock cichlid breeding and i was just wondering when i should strip the female of her fry.

"The females are usually ugly"! WOW!

How many tanks do I need to start breeding peacocks?

Where do you buy just females?

Do you have to use a tumbler?

are these dragon blood females?

Once the male has made his corner and picked his female, I scoop out all other females. I’m afraid while they are mating the interruptions of chasing off other females, decreases the amount of babies produced. My average without intervention during mating is probably about 15 eggs. With intervention, it’s over 40.

Any certain water temp that encourage breeding?

What kind of cichlid is the females

you got any videos of how them fish turned out

That a 10 gallon tank?

Had a breeder tell me lighter color/more silver females produce nicer males... have you noticed or heard of this?

never heard of hand me UPs...

I just have a random assortment of males and females for a year or two now, and at least one time they bred once because I suddenly had three babies one day
