In addition, as it would not allow me to type any further, eggs have been laid by the female salvini Central America cichlid, but as stated no male exists in tank of that area, other tank mates include mouthbrooders such as frontosa, peacock cichlids, and mbuna's all from South Africa, so I am curious if there is any possiblity that these eggs are fertile, as I have many breeding pair, but the female that has laid these eggs is the only egg layer in the tank and has no mate of same genre, any ideas if eggs could be fertilized by a mouthbrooding cichlid such as the tankmates from south Africa?
