I just got six of them, juveniles about 1". They are eating well

eggs.

Which livingstonii? There are two in Lake Malawi.

I was breeding both of them in the 70's. They are both easy to breed
but the Maylandia livingstonii can be aggressive. Nimbochromis
livingstonii is quite peaceful.

Ah, I didn't know, the second one. Thanks.

The way Nimbochromis grow, you'll need a good size tank, and deep pockets
to keep them fed ;~). Very hardy fish.
