Breeding O. Mossambica

[jackalope]

I have definitely got a male, I think. His white throat is like a balloon under his chin

What color are the fish you're breeding? It sounds like the male, at least, is black.

Are you trying to breed for color at all?

They go from silver/gray striped to black striped -- I'm not breeding for color, I'm just hoping they're breeding .... they are about 6 months old and are just starting to get the idea that they should breed ..... kinda slow on the uptake ...... I'll hafta check and see if I've got some females
