Victorian Haps and Malawian Copadichromis

Post by artie1209 »

Compatibility question? I Have a young colony of breading Trophus Morii (12) with 6 Synodontis petricola and want to add Copadichromis mbenjii (young group Male 4 females) and haplochromis nyererei (1 male and 1 sub male, 3 female) to a heavily rocked 90 gallon. Do you think I will have hybridization problems between the the Victorian haplochromis nyererei and the Malawian Copadichromis mbenjii?

Hope you don't mind me chiming in since I'm helping Pam out while she's on a 'fish holiday".

I personally don't see a problem with the fish mentioned, but I will check further and let you know. I used to keep nyererei in with all sort of Malawians and never noticed any inappropriate mating behaviour between them. Mine were in a 90 as well.
