Copidachromis Azureus

[Afrikan]

Oh ok, if they are from last consignment brought in (left overs), they should be pretty big by now, mine are rather large now, from the same lot..

Hi Frenchy,

Can't be 100% sure but it sure looks like the Copidachromis Azureus i purchased from the LFS - went back today to see if i could find a female... seems they are mixed in with litho's not Fryeri - my mistake (DOH!!!)

:oops: :oops:

Tropheus, funny I was thinking the same thing. Hybrid almost certain, unfortunately.

Dont think privately bred as they to big unless they are left overs?

they should be pretty big by now, mine are rather large now, from the same lot..

How big are they? :-? Should be easy to tell apart, surely?

How big are privately bred ones when first delivered to lfs? Over here the general rule is 3cm. Bigger is better too.

At least that way at 3cm, deformities, species identification & the like are easy to tell & go by.

Hiya Frenchy

The last lot that came on consignment should be rather big now, my guys are around the 5 inch mark, and from that same consignment... so that's why I questioned the lot that are there now.. cause if they are left overs from the last consignment and small, then they sure as hell have been stunted with growth through lack of feeding, so I assumed they could have been privately bred and someone has sold the shop some young ones??...
