    Lake Tanganyika fish carry their young in their scales, tails, fins or mouths?

    Question #72632. Asked by vanks. (Nov 25 06 10:52 AM)

    		I believe you may be asking about "Cichlids" from Lake Tanganyika, in which case your answer would be mouth. They carry their young in their mouths and some are known as mouthbrooders.
