No, about 6. Mbipia lutea. I've had no luck breeding them though and only have one male.

The Malawi are easy enough to breed I have three breeding females and still wating to get a batch of fry for myself either she eats them or else they are released in the main tank

Tropheus

Yes, most Malawis are handy enough to breed. You really need to isolate the females if you want to keep the fry. If they're released into a community tank they don't have much chance of survival.

i have a 110L tank split in two now so hopefully next time she is holding i get the fry its early days and i am sure once i get a few there will be lots after.

Dont really remember,they had different sizes but always get a bigger liner than you think you need allowing for wastage,folding etc etc.
