Hi Everyone,

Right now I have a 55 gallon african set up. My current occupants are 2 male ps. saulosi's and 1 female ps. saulosi. I also have 1 wild caught male msobo, 1 wild caught female msobo, and 2 female msobos. Also in the tank is 1 pleco, and 1 red tail shark (don't ask, its my husbands and can't get rid of the shark).

Anyways, my female ps. saulosi has become pregnant a few times but always spits out her eggs within a few days. I have since picked up a "holding" tank for her, for the next time she becomes pregnant. It is a 10 gallon (i hope it isn't to small) and am basically hoping to have her in there the next time she becomes pregnant. It is currently cycling. I have filled it up half way with the water from my current tank and the rest have put in regular tap water, so it may already be done cycling.

My question is this, should I place the female saulosi in the holding tank now to fatten her up and then either introduce her back into the 55 gallon, or should I have the male scoulousi moved into the 10 gallon as a "breeding tank" with the female or should I leave her until she becomes pregnant again and then move her into the holding tank.

Thanks everyone.
