Metriaclima Greshakei Breeding in the 55 Gallon

Here a short video of my Mbuna breeding in the 55 gallon tank.
Metriaclima Greshakei
Scientific name: Maylandia greshakei
Previous name: Pseudotropheus greshakei
Trade name: Pseudotropheus ice blue
Natural habitat: Rocky environments and reefs.
Food in the lake: Plankton from the open water
Food in the aquarium: A mix of quality pellets, flakes, krill, artemia, etc fed sparingly. No mammal meat!
Behaviour in my aquarium: The dominant male defends his territory mainly against cichlids of his own kind. This can't be compared though with the determination that some other species in my Mbuna tank tend to show.
Tank mates: Can be kept with other mid-sized Mbuna with preferably another colour pattern to reduce mutual aggression. Always be careful to prevent crossbreeding with similar species. There are already more than enough *mixed assorted African cichlids* in this world that are impossible to identify.
Aquarium: At least a tank of 200 with a sufficient amount of rocks and caves. A sand bottom, pH between 7.5 - 8.5, temperature about 25°C
