My lovely Niger Kribensis pair is coming along great, colours are really starting to show.

Female's looking nice and plump.

Male's colours are really popping now.

Really enjoying keeping them, so much fun to watch. Big thanks to Peterclarke, they're just as interactive as you said!

Lovely feedback, thanks for that. Beautiful photographs are always a challenge with active fish like these. Took me a while to get the shots, they just wouldn't stay still for a second.

They look very happy and settled in.

Nice one m8, lovely fish you've got there. I've got a soft spot for Pelvicachromis taeniatus klugei myself, they're great little fish. I was lucky enough to get a spawn out of mine after just a few days of having them. How about yours, haven_9, have your Nigerkento4 Red Kribensis pair spawned yet?

Got plenty of hiding spots like coconut caves, they seem to love 'em. Mine made homes in all the coconut caves, started moving the substrate about, then 2 days later eggs were laid. Fingers crossed for you, good luck.
