Excellent ! I had a couple pairs of Fundulopanchax gardneri "Rayfield". Did manage to raise four fry but they died before 6 months. I did everything wrong. I later learned that males are really aggressive in driving the females during courtship. I was advised to put several mops in there to give the female a hiding place. Line of sight hides don't work real well as the male will actively hunt her down. Better yet, separate them before and after spawning introducing them to each other at lights out to spawn the next morning. I heard lots of ideas. I hope yours are eating well because mine were picky. Such a beautiful fish. The fry are big and easy to raise taking newly hatched brine shrimp immediately . Do yourself a favor and join the American Killifish Association. I went in another direction and decided to get my basic mop spawner skills dialed with Aplocheilus lineatus Golden Wonders. I now have 5 tanks full of them.
