Indy Cichlid Club

I have a couple of connections with some local cichlid breeders and wholesale buyers and have decided to buy some young wild caught africans from lake malawi to grow out and eventually breed. I will be buying 2-3 different species (1-2m, 4-5f of each) so I'm wondering, are there any rare fish that anyone would like me to breed, I have a couple mbunas in mind that can't be found in any petstores like the Petrotilapia sp. "Chitimba" which has beautiful coloring btw but am open to any suggestions

I am more of a tang guy... lol... but good luck on breeding!

I just went to Terra Haute Sat. morning and picked up $120 worth of rare african cichlids to start my journey of cichlid breeding. The species I bought: Pseudotropheus Polit, Tropheus Dubosoi, and Placidochromis Phenochilus Tanzania. These guys should be mature enough to breed in a few months so pretty soon i'll be cookin

Nice what size tanks are you keeping them in?

Right now the polits and pheno tanzanians are in my 110 and my tropheus are in a 72gal bowfront. They are all 2-3" and I am picking up a 125gal tomorrow that I will be setting up in a couple of weeks as soon as I pick up some pool filter sand, flower pots, and find some cheap mag 350s. I will be putting the tropheus in the 125 to grow out a good sized breeding colony and the polits will go in the 72.

terrific!!!
