Re: Killie choice
Ron, I agree with your choice. I do not pull eggs, and find that
primigenium do not seem to eat their fry in a planted tank. I even have a
bare ten and a few fry have managed to servive in with the parents. And
yes, they will do fine on flake food (even the fry).

> Hi Ken, I would check out *Aphyosemion sp.aff. primigenium* Beautiful
fish, not shy, will eat anything, spawns readily. The body is a beautiful
green with some red horizontal lines, the tail is orange with some red
spotting, and the tail and anal fins have beautiful electric blue or bright
yellow (just recently found out about the yellow myself) edges. I don't know
about keeping fry in the tank though, I usually pull eggs, because it's not
a problem to do so. So many fish fit the bill. good luck! Ron
