- Stunning footage of how to breed the Kribensis cichlid ( pelvicachromis pulcher ). It also looks at how to feed the fry and the adults, as well as everything you need to keep these African dwarf cichlids happy and healthy. Kribs are the easiest cichlid to care for and breed.

Best videos on UA-cam.
Hey guess what they have fry yipeee
@Destroyer 2697 Congratulations !
The Dave thanks 😊
The Dave you should see my video on them go to destroyer2697 on UA-cam and that should be there called my Kribensis has fry
After seeing the quality of your video there is no reason for me to video my fish in a much less spectacular manner. Wow . You take the time to assemble and edit incredible videos.
Thank you for the kind words, but don't let me stop you from following your muse. :-)
Probably one of the best videos on UA-cam. I studied Kribensis and even did a Biology project on them - but this video even taught me a few things! Absolutely great work! Well done!
Thank you for the kind words!
Your films are incredible. This is how biology lessons should look like. Amazing work.
Thank you so much 😀
I'm running out of adjectives to describe how fabulous your videos are. This was better than watching a National Geographic Special. I have bred Kribs so many times over the years but I feel as though I have never really seen the fish until now. As someone else commented, no quick shots here; you show the whole story and are not in a hurry. Amazing. I wonder how many hundreds of hours went into the making of this video?
Thank you for noticing all of my hard work ! This video was one of my most time consuming projects yet. 100+ hours easily !!!
This is the most detailed video I have ever watched! Thanks!!
Thank you! I love these fish, so I really wanted to do a through job.
Brilliantly detailed video. Absolutely love it.
Bravo.
I am very impressed with your close up detailed video, your information, and overall quality.
Thank you very much! The fish did most of the work !
I'm wanting to put some in my community tank with some rams but about 50% of people say don't and 50% say do? Tank is a 270 liter tank. Excellent video btw they make excellent parents.
Thank you. . . .Here's my advice---Don't do it ! When the Kribs begin to breed, they'll probably kill your rams, and anything else that gets in their way. By the way, German Blue Rams are the subject of my next video.:-D
Superb introduction to this interesting and rewarding species. Thank you
WOW!! This is the best video regarding fry I've ever seen and I've seen a lot!! Amazing footage!! Thank you!!!
Thank you, and you are very welcome. . . There's more where that came from !
These videos are so cool! You do a great job making these high res video of these fish, it's always interesting to watch!
Thank you Alison, I do put a lot of work into making them !
Incredible video! Thank you so much for the detailed info, it answered all my questions 🙏
Awesome! Thanks for watching the video. 🐠🐠🐠
Another top quality vid, simply stunning.You really do these creatures justice, showing such interesting behaviour and those babies are sooo cute! Great information also and very peaceful to watch. Really appreciate the effort you put in, cant wait to see what you come out with next. Sincere thanks.
Thank you for watching my video and taking the time to leave a comment.
Beautiful footage, extremely detailed information. Amazing video.
Thank you very much!
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! This was awesome. Bought three pairs, one for a friend's 5th grade classroom. Looking forward to breeding up a bunch. Best video I've seen by a LONG shot on Kribs.
Thank you for the kind words, and best of luck with the new fish. :-D
Excellent photography and information! I can only imagine how long this footage took to collect, thank you!
Thank you and you're welcome. Yes, most of my productions do take a long time to put together. . . It's a labor of love. :-D
This is undoubtedly the best fish breeding video I've ever seen!! Thank you so much for all the details you put into it!! ❤
You are very welcome . Love these fish!
Incredible video! The recorded behavior of the fish with the depth of information has definitely peaked my interest. Thank you for taking the time creating and sharing with us.
You are very welcome! I love these fish. Their parenting behaviors were a lot of fun to watch and film.
I just got a matched pair today for my planted tank,am glad I found this video it will help me along the way,thank you!
Glad I could help
This was the only video i had downloaded when my power cut out and I watched it twice.... i didn't download it with sound but I played my own music and it was amazing!!! Very good video.
Thanks for watching the video.
Just amazing!. Thank you for the wonderful footage.
You are very welcome and thank you for taking the time to watch it . . . It was my most involved project to date. I love these fish ! They are such great parents !
Amazing video as always!
Thank you, . . as always !
I watched this yesterday, and now i have a pair of Kribensis. The ultimate guide you made. Bravo !
Thank you. Enjoy the new fish, they are a lot of fun to watch. Especially, when they have babies!!!
@@TheDave333 I wonder, i bought them yesterday. I have a 120 litre tank and no plant (java moss with yati) A lot of swimming area and 1 cm hagen gravel. Female is always under yati moss and male is coming and hitting her belly. The female courting obvious but stays in the same place. The belly is like pinkish color. When should i understand she is ready ? + they dont come up the surface so i have a tetra granulated food. Should i change it with floating food ? Male is so active, he finds the food but female is not so active.
The male is probably ready to mate. but the female is not. Her belly will turn a brighter pink when she is near ready, and it should grow much bigger. The males can get very aggressive, so it is important that she has a place to hide. It is also important that they have one or two caves to lay their eggs in. Clay flower pots turned on their side are good. Sinking food will help you get the food near the female.
The Dave actually the male was obviously bigger than female so i went to the store and bring one more male too. The female liked the new boy according to his size. Now they are peacefully living together. I seperate the old male from the tank. On my way to the fish store :))
This is what you call a good educational video,excellent video helped me with everything i needed thank you👌
My pleasure. That's how I roll here at The Dave :-D
Thank you for this beautiful and informative video, and for the evident care and effort, you put into making it.
You're very welcome, and thank you for taking the time to leave a comment. :-D
Very good work. I really appreciate you taking the time to explain it all. Thank you very very much. 🙂
You are very welcome. I appreciate you taking the time to watch the video. :-D
I enjoyed this video very much. Your camera is amazing! I’m glad you aren’t in a hurry to share their story. Being a crazy fish person, I enjoy the extended clips of just how they do things and hanging out watching them.
Thank you, I struggled to keep this video at under an hour. . .
The Dave i could've easily watched for another 2 hours. It's indescribably amazing.
Thank you . . .
Krib vid exceptional. All of your vids are but that one was truly great work.
Thank you very much for your support and your kind words. Comments like yours help drive me forward. :-D
Very cool and clear video with nice highlights and pointers
What an enlightening video; top-notch in every aspect; also your talent, time and expertise in editing is also soon apparent. Thank you, The Dave, for your efforts and for sharing !
You are very welcome, and thank you for the wonderful compliments !
I highly appreciate your effort in making of this video. You have put in lot of time i.e. 2-3 months in making of this video. Great effort.
Thank you! These are great little fish. . .

Lovely video - so interesting to watch - shows how intelligent the fish are. Thanks for this!
You are very welcome, thank you for taking the time to watch it.
That was the best video on breeding a fish I have ever seen! Thank you very much for making it. It was inspiring and entertaining !
Thank you for taking the time to watch one of my videos. Welcome to The Dave. :-D
Definitely inspirational. So looking forward to doing this. Brilliant footage and info. 👍
Thank you. :-D
Great, very informative video! That panasonic camera is spectacular. Thanks for posting this up - I just picked up a few Kribs the other day - I've wanted them for years. Nice work, Dave!
Thank you! I appreciate your support. :-D
Wow salute to your hardwork i really enjoy watching 👍
It is amazing! Recently my Kribensis layed eggs and I'm hope all will well. This video helping me very much. Tnx Dave!

Most detailed video that I have seen. Thanks!
You're very welcome. Amazing fish / wonderful parents. I love watching them care for their young.
Thx so much for this video and intensive info, I’ve learnt so much
I’m now the proud first time sub parent to 70 babies that are now in a grow out tub (8 wks old)
Mum and Dad are living it up in the 40 gal 😉💞
Another round to come soon no doubt
It wasn’t my intention to become a breeder but looks like Mr and Mrs K are happy for me to take my hobby to another level
Cheers from Australia 🇦🇺🐠
Congratulations on your new Kribensis family. They're such great parents. Once they get comfortable and start breeding, It will be hard to get them to stop! 💞
Amazing content as usual. Great work!
Thanks for watching another one of my videos. :-D
This video was is FANTASTIC.....best Ive seen
Thank you :-)
Really enjoy your videos. So detailed and well done!
Thank you!
Fantastic footage. Very informative. Thanks for a great video.
You are very welcome, and thank you for taking the time to watch it.
This is an amazing video. I will definitely go for Kribensis. :)
You should!
One of my favourite fish and one of the first I bred also one of the best fish to watch when breeding . Another excellent video dave
Thanks 👍
thank you for a very informative video and taking the time to share this knowledge
oh my god, this is wonderful!!! I watched the whole thing, laughed and could not take my eyes off the video or your comments. I am a newbie since December 2018. I have raised and sold Albino Cory. And now am having luck, and I mean luck, at White Cloud Mountain Minnows. Have 10 minnow fry in with about 75 Cory fry. I would love to try what you have done here. I have heavily planted tanks. the cory and minnows are in a 36 gal. bowfront and cory eggs are everywhere most of the time. The minnows lay ther eggs in floating plants etc. And I have been transferring plants from bowfront to nursery tank often. And this seems to produce results. Thanks for that GREAT video!
You're welcome and Wow!!! It really sounds like you are doing well. Congratulations on all of your achievements, It's so nice to hear a success story! So, many comments are about problems, concerns, failures, etc. With all of this success comes a lot of hungry little mouths. . . You may want to consider more tanks !!! :-D
Fantastic documentary - Inspired - thank you
Glad you enjoyed it!
thanks for making this beautiful video, i really enjoyed it and lots of helpful information
You're very welcome! It was a fun video to make. They are such good parents, and breed like crazy once you get them going.
Stunning video. This is a whole different level of UA-cam videos. I need a “The Dave “ t-shirt!!
Thank you! I appreciate the kind words . . .
Awesome video documentary!!!
Thank you so much !!!
Awesome video! So informative, great camerawork and editing. Agree that this is the best breeding video I've ever seen.
Thank you so much. I am also working on a video all about the German Blue Ram. Stay Tuned!
@@TheDave333 cool man! Looking forward to it. Was actually thinking of GBRs for my next fish. I currently have a pair of Kribs with a hut full of wrigglers. (this is my first time breeding) Your video was so cool with the closeups and cross section of the cave! Question, how often should I be doing water changes while all of this is happening? I'm feeding mom and dad heavily so I'm getting algae and mulm buildup. Should I leave this be (is this good for fry?) or Gravel vac all the mess? Also, after all the fry become juveniles, how big of a tank would I need for a growout tank?
Congratulations on the breeding success. Keep to your regular water change schedule, but try not to disturb them anymore than you have to. They tend to get a little neurotic when they have fry. I would wait on the gravel vac.- remember to feed lightly, but frequently. A little algae and mulm are good for the babies. If you change 1/3 of the water each week you should be fine. The size of the growout tank will depend on the number of fry, but I would go with a 20 G - sponge filter, a few loose plants drifting around ( possibly java fern) and no substrate. It's easier to keep clean and keep an eye on the fry.
Wauw love this video!!! Awesome work mate :)
Cheers ! :-D
Great video. A pleasure to watch. It gave me an excellent feel for the fish.
Thanks! They're great little fish, excellent parents, and once they start breeding, it's difficult to get them to stop !!!
Awesome as usual!
Thank you !!!
Damn. Sharpness in this video is pleasing to the eye.
I have more . . .
awesome video, great fish and a very nice tank!!
Thank you . . . These fish love tanks like that.
Astounding, thank you so much.
You're very welcome. My next video will be similar to this one, but it's on German Blue Rams. . .
Amazing video mate!! Thank you and congratulations!! What a nice job!!! 👍👍👍
Thanks! I love watching these fish raise a family. It was a fun video to make.
what a brill video , camera work outstanding great knowledge shown. best iv seen well done
Thank you very much - a lot of hard work goes into making them.
This video is stunning, well recorded and inspiring, I love all the clarifications here and the advices. My two kribensis just became parents today and I was able to see the dance of the female, the creation of lair and her laying the eggs upside down, I thought of your video! :) Hope to be able to grow the future babies when they come, I am so nervous and happy!
You are welcome! I am very happy that you enjoyed the video so much. Congratulations on your new Kribensis family. It will be fun to watch the parents care for the fry. . .
Excellent video. Thankyou.
Excellent job sir
Awesome work!
Thank you
Hey, love your videos! Every single one of them is like a documentary and the style you create them is extremely professional. I wish there were more videos! ( i have some kribs with eggs now)
Hi, thanks for watching the video. I am working on new material everyday, but it takes a while to put something like this together. For instance, this Kribensis video took 100s of hours to film and put together! However, when I do release a new video, you can be assured that it is of the highest quality.
The Dave I am jealous of how good footage you can take! It is really worth the time, i have the notification bell on!!
Awesome! Thank you for your support !!!
Thanks for the video!
You're welcome!
Just awasome, I am also trying to breed them, learning lots of things form your video , thank you so much 😘
You're very welcome.. :-D
Very wonderful video
Lovely video!! One day I would love to keep these.
They are pretty cool fish ! Thank you for checking out my video.
Great video love your work
Thank you :-D
Excellent video! Thanks a lot, The Dave...
You're very welcome. Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment.
Always loved kribs .I remember as a child my dad had a breeding pair .He had an internal filter system and the poor fty all got sucked into it .He got them all out carefully , Great video ty Dave .Inspired myself to get some .Without the filter my father had ofc .;p
Great fish - great parents.
Excelente, no he visto mejor video que este. Felicidades y muchas gracias.
Muchas gracias. Fue un video divertido de armar.

Thank you so much 😀
Great video enjoyed
Thank You Dave
You are welcome . . . Thank you for taking the time to watch it.
Brilliant Video.
Thank you.
Amazing video! It's like a Natural geographic movie 😁 Very professional! I enjoyed every minute.
Thank you taking the time to leave a comment. I really appreciate it. :-D
@@TheDave333 my kribs just started their first breeding. The female is now guarding her eggs and your video was very helpful what to expect next )
Best of luck with the Kribs. . .
Holy cow, this is a good one right here !!!
Thank you. . . I have many more !
Excellent video !!
Thank you very much! ❤
This is cool! This is epic! This is grand! This is great! This is awesome!
Thank you so much. They're amazing fish, and such great parents.
Amazing work 🙏
Thank you 🙌
Love the video! I want to try Kribensis again...had a pair many years ago.
I highly recommend the Kribensis - they are most easily kept in a tank devoted just to them.
Great vid
Really nice video, nice record and nice fishes. I like this :)
Thank you. I appreciate your kind words. These are really wonderful fish / great parents. :-)
Thanks for your great video.
Glad you liked it!
A wounderful video. Thank you very much.
You are very welcome.
Thanks for the great video & the information fantastic effort
You are very welcome, and thank you for taking the time to watch it. I appreciate your support.
Very enjoyable to watch. Thank you. 🐡🐡🐡
You are very welcome. . . It seems as if I've earned a new fan! Thank you :-D
Thank you.
You are welcome.
The Dave, this has got to be the most enjoyable video I’ve seen on UA-cam, dont agree that you should add music or speak I think it makes the viewer concentrate that bit more,( did me anyway ) well done and thanks 👍🏻
Thanks for watching the video and taking the time to leave a comment.. . I feel exactly the same way about the music. It's far more relaxing and focused without all the extra noise. Nonetheless, I have begun to add narration to my videos, so they're more appealing to people who are uncomfortable with silence. . . .
Lovely video
Thanks 🤗
What a great video....
Thank you . . .
Amazing, thanks
Glad you liked it!
It's a good video when you watch all of it no matter if its 40 minutes. Like that cross section of the cave.
Thanks - it's one of my favorites.
Great videos!! Keep it up!
Thanks! Will do!
very good videos! from Portugal!
Thank you Portugal !!!
