Quite possibly the description "Dirt Spawners" 
could be a better term to refer to these 
"annuals".
I tend to think of Occidentals as a dirt spawner 
along with nigripinnis, whitei, etc., the Nothos 
and most of the Fundulopanchax as well. This 
broadens out the description and yet gives the 
Killie keeper some idea what to do to get 
offspring. A lot of incubation time lists set 
these fishes up the same way.

Problems occur when a new fish appears and there is no information.
