About 30 months ago I picked up some Guianacara Geayi (Bandit cichlid) I had 5 of them. Never seen them around here so I figured I would try them. After a year I starting asking questions mainly about what gives why aren't these guys breeding. A few friends laughed and said those fish are a long project, one said it was almost 3 years to the day that he got his first spawn which the fish promply ate. So I have been waiting and waiting..... about 2 months ago 2 of them killed off the other 3, I was ticked at first but then began hopeing this was a good sign that possibly they may be pairing up. I don't think they are quite there yet but last night I did notice they are showing some great color.
A few months ago.
And the male last night.
I may have to move those Gymno's out of there but I think I will give it a few more months before I change anything. But I sure hope these guys do something they have been a long project.

Also that Geophagus Brasiliensis at the top of the pic was found dead this morning....
