I don't know which courier company was used We did get stress when they did not show up on Thursday Wednesday they arrive late morning a few dead and the others not doing well at all manage to settle 7 into a tank at the LPS :-? Told them I would collect them the weekend if they were all good and that I wanted the others replaced. Next morning we rang to check........... all dead, at that point we learnt the van rolled the day before. Or so it was said! :evil: So sad lost little lives New lot are doing very well. Big thanks to LPS and my contact for getting me more as the supplier had none left after my first order! :roll: Just charging the battery for the camera will post pic's soon!

I find the alto comp and leleupi took great delight in annoying each other... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johannes Visser Posted May 21, 2008 Author Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 Thought as they are all still fry, they can grow up in a nice big tank, once I see pairing off or want to breed a specific cichlids out that tank we can take them out and place them into a 4foot for breeding etc. Breeding is still a long way off, so We will just enjoy watching them get big!
