Stunning photos of a lovely fish,Ive wanted to see these fish for years so thanks for the photos.Am I right in thinking they are of the glandulocaudinae family in that they have a gland on the caudal pedunclefor releasing pheronomes,Do you know anything of their breeding ?I put a post in about another gladulocaudine..mimagoniatus and when I get my notes right I will put in a post on the breeding,basically the female can and did in my tank, spawn and the eggs hatched while the male was in the far corner of the tank.thanks for the photos,jimlen.
