Zambian Sumbu Gibberosa

I got these guys from Big Jim and they are doing great. I'm going to hate to have to start thinning out the colony

I can understand why you will hate thinning them out.
They look real nice!!

Great set up,like the backwall very much.

Stunning colony mate.

Great looking colony. When the time comes to thin them out how about considering two colonies. Sure would look great at opposite ends of the room.

Zambians sure do have their own look. Very nice.

How long have you had the cyps in with them? Any losses yet?

The cyps were tank raised with the sumbu and no adult losses. However, the cyp fry make quick snacks. All in all they cohabit very well so far. In fact the dominant male cyp will strike the sumbu when guarding his breeding space. I was more worried about the Brevis but they too hold there ground and get right in the mix during feeding time

Thanks for the compliments on the tank.
