Females killed a Male
« on: May 10, 2014, 05:14:04 PM »
I have four female Placidochromis sp. "Phenochilus Tanzania" around 3-3.5" that bit and killed a male around 5-5.5."  In the short period I've been in the hobby I've never experienced such an issue.  Has anyone else had this experience?  Please share. <<<<still in shock.
