I have a lot of Kribs. I've had them since I was a kid and they are
interesting to watch. I also bought a wild pair of Pelvicachromis taeniatus
( I can't remember the location off the top of my head) I lost the male
after they spawned, but I have about 15 fry that are almost sexable. The
female has bright metalic gold face and a dark purple belly. Very pretty
fish!
