December 5, 200322 yr comment_11711 It says what it is in the link name you gave - an altispinosa. Microgeophagus altispinosa also known as a Butterfly Ram or Bolivian Ram It is a south American dwarf cichlid and grows to about 8cm. I have not got any but they are around. Report

December 6, 200322 yr comment_11722 My lfs in Kaitaia has them but are really expensive at $19. Heard they are alright for community tanks but don't want to risk it. Report
December 10, 200322 yr comment_11804 yea its definatley a bolivian ram and they are absolutley fine in comminity tanks but they may get slightly terrortorial when breeding. you can pick them up in shops for around $15 but from a breeder its usually alot less. Report
February 24, 200422 yr comment_14577 bit of a late answer but hey someone might still be interested. Yeah i have one of these guys, they are neat little fish, intelligent and our one has staked out a territory in his tank which he patrols most the day but has never shown any agression to our smaller or larger fish. He shows a fair bit of curiousity to the other fish though. Cute little dude. Report
