    You know Cichlids humble me and remind me of my age. When you look at a Frontosa and wonder if you have twenty years left to own one. I really enjoy your channel!

    I don't think that I told you before. Doing a 75gal with 7. Have one about 4 to 5" now and six from Zaire on order that are ( well I am told 8.5cm ) I plan to move into a smaller house (this is to big for 1 five bedrooms) and will up grade to a 120gal or bigger at that point. Hope to get a breeding colony going.

    hi there, i like your show. in my youth i use to raise South American cichlids, and worked in a shop for 5 years back in high school and collage .
    i had a question on your on this video. why are you selling of all the fry you were raising and just keeping the wild ones. it seams a good way would be to keep all the best looking ones and sell off the poor quality ones. i am not trying to be a critic, but i truly do not know the reason. just wondering ??

    • @QuebecCichlides
      @QuebecCichlides  3 роки тому

    Hey awesome video so far, what do you mean by "i sometimes offer pension service" for customers when you have the tank space 6:00 area of the video.

    • @QuebecCichlides

      Hi there. I offer, if I have any free tanks, a pension service for my clients in need.
      I don't really do this for vacations, as its a huge stress on the fish. Most of the cases I've had were from either house fires, aquarium leaks or other disasters like that. We keep the fish safe while the client gets his life back on track. In most cases, the insurance company covers the cost of the pension.
      Thank you

    I was wanting to know why you did not add at least one f1 female to the new wild caught. I would think that it would add to the genetics of the wild caught.

    • @QuebecCichlides
      @QuebecCichlides  4 роки тому

      You usually do that with F1s-domestic bred fish to avoid inbreeding.
      With wild caught ones, your chances of having brothers/sisters is slim
