    This is the video I took that I was lucky enough to get the RFBN cichlids doing their mating dance (the Festivum in the background looks like a perv watching like he is....lol). I will also post some pics of the Christmas Fulu fry as soon as I can get a good shot.

    This is the best pic of the Fulu fry I could get...I'll post more as they get older and aren't as afraid of me.

    looks like my male christmas fulu is in "the mood" again. Before I took this video he was chasing all the other cichlids away from himself and the female.

    as of last night, my female fulu is holding again which causes and interesting predicament. The 10 gallon that I had her in now contains her first brood which are getting larger every day, but still not the size they need to be when I can sell them back to the lfs I got the parents at. I want to take her out of the cichlid tank again so she can be by herself in the 10 gallon but I don't know if the original brood would bother her and I wouldn't want them to eat the new fry. I do have another 10 gallon setup that isn't working out completely right due to the heater not operating correctly (got the setup free from a friend) so I might just get a better heater for that one and put her in there.
