20-04-2006 21:23 by lisa uk	hi, i have approx. 40. they are £2.00 each, which i think is reasonable as they are £6.95 each in my lfs! they breed easily & i shouldn't think it will be long before they start to breed, as the females are nearly the same size as the males. they are about 1.5" the biggest ones.you can always come & take a look ,no obligation lol. let me know & i'll make sure i'm in lol.
20-04-2006 23:14 by wymcot	trickatech - have you just researched the species or gone further into the Malawi biotype. Afra are great fish but dont expect to keep too many in the same tank, I male for 3 females min, unless you have a large tank. At 1.5" it will be difficult to sex them so be prepared to get rid of any extra males. Lisa is selling at a fair price
20-04-2006 23:47 by Ray	Lisa,I am interested in some too,where in the UK are you?
21-04-2006 08:05 by lisa uk	hi ray, i am near cannock staffordshire, 5 mins from the gorgeous cannock chase! you are welcome to come & take a look. i find that the males, even small ones, have a blue sheen to them , whereas the females have a distinct yellow sheen down them. i have in my show tank 1 male & 2 females, & there is no aggression between them, although the male does like to think he is the boss of the tank lol.
21-04-2006 15:59 by yanton	i have a great pair of afra. the males are very territorial for their size, often seeing off larger fish. make sure you have loads of rocky hidy holes.
21-04-2006 17:46 by Ray	Hi Lisa a bit far to travel I live in Brighton
21-04-2006 19:48 by trickatech	hi will this be compatible with many other species? if so which would you suggest?
21-04-2006 20:34 by lisa uk	i have them in a 5' mixed tank, with red zebras, scianerchromis fryeri,dolphins,hongi,labs,rusty,borleyi,protmelus,chilotilapia, & they all get on fine! abit of chasing like with all malawis, but never any damage done. i do believe in over stocking though which greatly helps with aggression.
