Not getting my hopes up yet, but i've recently discovered the original Rainbow Cichlid i had is actually Female as she has paired with the other one i added, i recently moved them both to the 4ft and they have taken over both back corners and been clearing out the gravel, the R/H corner has a good sized rock stood vertical which i guess they will lay the eggs on if any and the L/H will be the nursery. The Male has darkened up nicely and they are guarding these "Territories" tag teaming between the 2 spots :clap:
Like i say i'm not getting ahead of myself and getting too excited as with the 5 small/medium plecs in there the opportunities for the eggs to get gobbled up are many but would be very happy if they did spawn :thumbup:
going to start feeding Brine Shrimp to condition them a bit as well
even if no success in this tank at least i know i have a Pair now
