[font=Franklin Gothic

Medium]I am a Junior Girl Scout and I am working on a badge and I need to know how many pregnancies

an average African cichlid has in her life-time.

Thats just a great

question, i will have to said that deppends a lot ot the specific species we are talking about; in

african cichlids we have fish that are very prolific, versus the ones that are hardy the breed, so

i dont think theres a rule in this case, but if i have to guess, i can tell you that a lot,
