Hello Scott. Thanks for your comments. I appreciate it. My Malawi cichlid tank
continues to do fine. I believe population growth has pretty much reached a
standstill, because there are now so many adult fish in the tank, that new fry
have a very low chance of survival. In spite of the fact that there are
always at least a few brooding females in the tank, hungry mouths soon devour
the fry after they are released. Sometimes maybe one or two survive, but that
is about it.

I am a bit surprised by your comment regarding your landlords not allowing you
to maintain an aquarium. I can understand if they might be opposed to animals
which might dirty or tear up the place -- such as cats and dogs -- but a self
contained environment like an aquarium? Other than a possible slight mess
during water changes, what is their concern? Or do you live in a really posh
place?  :)
