VinsonMassif Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 How common are these in the LFS? I have not heard of them until now, but am considering getting some if they are around. I saw Neon had their's spawn and got to Googling them. Pretty cool little fish. Or maybe someone in Chch who has bred them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dixon1990 Posted June 6, 2008 Report Share Posted June 6, 2008 I want some too, but havent seen them in shops recently, although John at organism said he might be getting some in next shipment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neon Posted June 7, 2008 Report Share Posted June 7, 2008 How old are yours Afrikan? How many do you have? I spent ages thinking about what types of dwarf cichlid to get for my 3 foot tank, and so far I'm really glad I got these ones. It was my boyfriend's suggestion to get them actually. Here's some pics. They're not great photos but will give you an idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

caserole Posted June 8, 2008 Report Share Posted June 8, 2008 I find they come in once or twice a year depending on how quickly the wholesalers can sell them. The pic you put up Neon is a particularly nice example, they don't all ways look as good as that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Afrikan Posted June 8, 2008 Report Share Posted June 8, 2008 Great shots Neon, aren't they fantastic My 3 are stunning and the colour and markings are out of this world, will put some shots up when I have a new digi cam.. or I could possibly get a good enough shot with cell phone, yet somehow I doubt that :roll: :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cheesejawa Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 OMG amazing fish and photos. Where ever did did you get those magnificent fish? :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neon Posted June 9, 2008 Report Share Posted June 9, 2008 Thanks everyone I got them from Hollywood Fish Farm in Mt Roskill. Unfortunately today they are very chilled out and the female isn't chasing the other tank mates anymore. And no sign of the babies Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
