Nice East coast gold. I have 10 of these guys about 3

-4 inches but I guess sexual maturity comes a bit latter cause I'm still waiting to have some

babies. Congrats.

My pair 1st bred at 3.5 for the male and only

2" for the female. The 1st spawn mysteriously disappeared, the 2nd the fry are now almost an

inch. 1st food pureed peas because artemia seemed too large, until they were 3 days free

swimming.
Here some shots of my female +.

These images appear to be Ptychochromis oligacanthus rather than

Ptychochromis grandidieri (East Coast Gold). Unfortunately, I do not post images on forums but if

you are interested in viewing some images of P. grandidieri, let me know and I will send them via

email.

I'd agree, they look like the

mainland Oligacanthus from the Manajeba river. Definately not Grandidieri which are a much plainer

fish.
