ryanjury Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 It may end up being a "good bye" if they don't get along but looks like 2m 3f and in a 350L tank so they have a bit of room hopefully they get along and maybe even breed..

Neon Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 This is mine $6 at HFF-seemed to have a bit of colour so at price seemed no brainer. what have you 'scored' lately Wow, how long ago did you buy that? I didn't think you could buy cichlids for $6 I thought the flowerhorn looked good but not when you consider I'd need to shell out for a larger tank :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hovmoller Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 A Juwel Rio 125 with stand and all equipment in perfect condition (except - see below) on TM for $100!! and he delivered it too! Seller thought it had a crack in the glass.. turned out it's just a scratch... been running for months now no problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neon Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 really? I'd quite like some of those tropheus moliro firefox (sp) :lol: have you any of those? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanjury Posted September 8, 2010 Report Share Posted September 8, 2010 They would fit into the special category Probably worth around $20ea from a breeder ALOT more from a shop and need to get 10-12 min to get a good colony going unless you are lucky.. I sell most my common africans for $6ea as well, although they are going out cheap at the moment so if anyone wants some let me know..
