Thank you for the great video! Not to put anybody else down, but this is by far the best Kribensis video I've found on youtube. I would love to have a pair and watch them take their kids on a field trip around the tank like this, but the only thing holding me back is the fear that I wouldn't be able to re-home the fry once they've grown. Absolutely gorgeous fish, and I think they're gonna win out over an Apistogramma which I've also been eyeballing. Again, thanks for the nice footage AND the great info.

Honestly I doubt it. I've kept them together and had the Kribs breeding no problem. I don't find they bother Kribs or intimidate them to the point they are uncomfortable to breed. Assuming you definitely have one of each sex and water conditions around the preferred range feed them well and try providing a few different options for breeding sites; a cave, a flat rock and perhaps even a couple of broad leaves such as Indian Almond leaves if you can. Hopefully they'll breed for you soon. 🤞

G'day Daniel, this is one of my all time favorite fish, I just got a new pair recently after not having kept them in about 10 years, and I'm in love again. They're on their second spawning attempt right now. I think the male effed up and ate the babies last time, and she tried to kill him for it. I made a few vids on them, and plan on doing a species profile as well...you should drop by and have squiz if you have some free time (sorry about the shameless self promotion, but you might enjoy these). This time all is going well, they haven't come out of the cave yet, but I have seen wiggly tails. Not long until the first batch from the new pair I think. Really awesome species profile, on a really awesome little African Cichlid 👍

The gouramis I have currently are more semi-aggressive than peaceful but I was curious to see if I would be able to add a kribensis. That being said, are they ok alone or do they prefer pairs/community?
@DanielKeepingFish3 жыл бұрын
You like your Gourami hey. No wonder too, they're wonderful fish. Kribensis are usually fine in planted community tanks. They tend to use the bottom of the tank more so wouldn't really bother your Gourami too much and I don't see your other fish minding them. The only problem is if they start trying to breed, they get very territorial. I've see all other fish trying to keep out of their way when that's happening including Gourami, Angelfish and just about everything else. You could keep a few of the same sex to avoid that or set them up with a spawning site at one end of the tank, hope they use it and let the other fish keep to the other end for a few days. They tend to chase other fish away rather than actually damage them but they can intimidate the other fish whilst trying to keep them away from their fry.

You can keep a single Kribensis sure. Single Kribs are a great addition to community tanks. Whether you keep a male or female is generally down to personal choice. Females tend to be more colourful where males tend to be a bit larger than females with a bit more colour and pattern on their caudal fin. Either will be equal in terms of behaviour in the tank when kept singularly. They're a really nice fish. You'll enjoy whichever you choose I'm sure.

It's true, they can be fiercely territorial when breeding but it's rewarding watching them too. Sometimes breeder hold out on one of the sexes but often big box stores are not quite as particular. I know some people prefer to avoid those stores but I think they are they same as independent businesses, some are good, some not so much. As long as you quarantine any fish you get properly... Also if you join local groups either in your community or online you'll soon get to know who has Kribs and might be able to help you out.

Added 10 neon tetras to a tank containing these horrible buggers. They ate 5 of them in no time. Best kept fried in breadcrumbs I reckon. Awful to see how aggressive these things can be. Avoid.
