Default Blue Dolphins (cyrtocara moorii)

I got my hands on a breeding group of these beauties. (1M 3F) Anything special I should know about them? I've done about as much research as any new mom can, but if any of you have experience, I'd appreciate the inside info.

Also, does anyone know any catfish or bottom-dwellers that are compatible with them??

compatible bottom-dwellers would be synodhontis petricola or multipuntatis

or any other Syno. I like Decorous or Angelicas. Also clown loaches would be good.

Kaboom... I got them from Cranbrook, BC. She sold me all she had because she was clearing out that tank. I know that Petsmart sells them for like $12 each, though... at least they do in Red Deer...

I discovered when I got home from work on Wednesday that one of the females is holding, so if the brood is successful, I will have some fry... when they are big enough, would you be interested in some?
