SparkyNat Posted February 14, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 14, 2008 And i have to go back tomorrow to pick up some other fish, so they are going to sort out which ones i was meant to get so i want to make sure they dont just give me random cichlids Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peanuts Posted February 14, 2008 Report Share Posted February 14, 2008 ive just got some 2cm ones.the young have the same patterning as the adults minus any colour.you will be able to see the distintive giraffe patterning,even at 2cms my ones markings are very clear Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jim r Posted February 14, 2008 Report Share Posted February 14, 2008 The only difference I have noticed is the blue snout when they get older. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smidey Posted February 15, 2008 Report Share Posted February 15, 2008 i tried them with most of the fish that are in my sig below, it was a big mistake. they became so aggressive that others were almost killed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SparkyNat Posted February 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted February 15, 2008 Thats what i was sort of worried about, most fish that i have together i have just trialed to make sure they work out as most i dont know the correct names as most are brought from shops that just sell assorted cichlids. But i have heard that they are agressive and ambush other fish Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
