    Just a tip, try to put spme tipes of grouping tetra and corys in the acquarium and you'll notice that your kribensis will fell much more at home and they'll begin to explore the acquarium and they won't be as shy as yours

    • @_Clayton.Bigsby_

      Some rams can be tough. I've been successful with Bolivian rams, but I've tried gbr's and gold rams (same fish, different color) three different times, and I've lost them all within a month of getting them from internal parasites, despite treating them with general cure as well as expel p. I'm looking into giving these a try as well now.

    Hey, I’m thinking about getting some Kribs but just had one question I can’t seem to find an answer to... being as keeping a breeding pair in a tank can be cause for some aggression in a community tank, do you think it would work to put several of the same gender in and be able to avoid the aggression? I really want to get a couple of these guys but not really interested in the breeding aspect or looking to add aggression to my tank, but thank you for the video it’s very helpful!

    Once the Fry’s are free swimmers should I remove the frys into a separate tank or would they be okay in the tank with the parents? My Kribs had their first batch of eggs hatch last night and now I have fry’s. I’m wondering if I should move them once the parents are done raising them. I can imagine they will be still pretty young and done want them harassed.

      KeepingFishSimple thanks so much!
      sorry if it ends up a mile long! Lol
      I have a 40 gallon with 5 Kribensis 1 adult male, 2 adult females, which the male and a female have spawned and have had babies that are 2 weeks old, they both are amazing with each other and there only 2 fry, I do also have 2 young adults I think they are females, the other adult female is very fat and her belly is very red, looks like she’s ready to have her eggs, I added another cave because she’s showing interest in the male that already has spawned with the other female, my question is will he spawn with her even though he’s taking care of fry already with another female? The male is very aggressive towards the 2 young adults, I’m actually in the process of moving them into my 60 gallon community tank for there safety, The male and the female that’s ready to spawn I have seen them go into a cave together briefly and she does a shiver dance for him, but I’m thinking maybe I should pull the male and female out and put them in there own tank to spawn, can you give me some advice on what to do?

    Basic info, with a few errors. Such as, "They're found in West African lakes..." No... 🤦🏻‍♂️ Pelvicachromis spp. are almost exclusively riverine species; most abound in shallow, shaded forest streams where the water is pretty swift & cooler (~24°C). How do I know? I've collected wild kribs in Douala, Cameroon before. There are no lakes there, I can tell you that. Just thickets of jungle & tea-stained streams.
