I've always treated N. sp. Kilombero TAN 95/4 the same as
any other Notho I've kept (ie guentheri, palmqvistii etc).  The
fry have always been easy enough to raise on bbs as with
other species.

The only problem I've had with them, that's made them a bit
tricky is that I get badly skewed sex ratios.  The batch I'm
raising now is about 10:1 male:female.  The females, BTW,
are one of the few species to show any markings making
them pretty easy to tell apart from other Notho species.

> As far as Remova

Try Renova.
