Who Gives A Fish Forums

Hello everyone,

Just a quick intro and I wanted to share my latest additions.

These little live gems are really tough to find in Europe, as are many Victorkento4s - they're just not as popular as Tanganyika/Malawi, and with their vulnerable status in the wild, wild-caught ones are pretty scarce.

If I had the space, money and time, I'd love to breed these properly and contribute to their conservation - it'd be amazing to make them more available locally.

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to share my thoughts on shengzi's latest additions. Those little gems are indeed a rare find in Europe, mainly because they're not as popular as other species like Tanganyika or Malawi. Their vulnerable status in the wild makes it even harder to get wild-caught specimens.

I checked out the video link you shared, https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jR0hiN2PFfs, and it's great to see your new acquisitions thriving. As you mentioned, breeding these species in captivity can greatly contribute to their conservation. If I had the resources, I'd definitely consider breeding them too, to make them more accessible locally.

Stunning display, so many gorgeous cichlids in one tank, lovely to see.
