The Guppy award goes to: opens envelope from the African lakes: Brichardi from the African rivers: Kribensis from South America: Angelfish, Acaras and Apistos (depending on your luck) from Central America: Convict cichlid from North America: Rainbow cichlid from Asia: I'd be hesitant to recommend an easy breeder, (and I'm not going to consider Blood Parrots or Flowerhorns as Asian).... but once you get a Mozambique mouthbreeder to breed, you will have no shortage of fry ;~) I hope I got my Central & North division right, though if I didn't someone will correct me ;~) -- www.NetMax.tk >> Stay informed about: Easiest cichlid to breed

Mozambique is hardly an Asian coutry. The only cichlids I know that exist in Asia are the Etropolus kind better known as chromids ! RAF >> Stay informed about: Easiest cichlid to breed

For example, the Monodactylidae have a variety of names, and are claimed to be indigenous by more than one country. Fish which move between Australia and Africa and/or along the coast under India could be considered Asian. I don't know if the Mozambique mouthbreeder fits this description, (I'm only guessing) but if it crossed the saltwater straits to reach Mozambique, there's a good possibility ;~) -- www.NetMax.tk >> Stay informed about: Easiest cichlid to breed
