Sicklid Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Hi all I bought these Zebra as fry in April last year off trademe from a guy who said they were cobalt blue zebra. These are quite big now about 10cm almost. Now looking at the colouring and comparing these pictures to the ones of cobalt blues online they don't look anything like them. These are more darker blue where as the cobalts are more lighter blue. Could anyone shed some light on what cichlids these could be?

ryanjury Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 Random blue zebras probably like 90% of the mbuna in NZ which are just hybrids but someone breeds them in a mixed tank and does a random google search and gives them a name to sell them.

bigfishhead Posted January 20, 2015 Report Share Posted January 20, 2015 It is a hybrid unfortunately. Cant tell exactly what cross but I can see it has socolofi powder blue genes in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No worries mate, unfortunately the state of a lot of our africans in NZ is quite poor.. Fish room is slowly progressing, got the 750L display tank going in the house and have a few nice fish growing out in there and have some other fish looking good so need to really get it going. Haha voluntary labour is always welcome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
