New breed of Cichlid fish started by someone in Penang.

:lol:

Beautiful and considered a "feng shui" fish by the Chinese, some of these prized species can fetch up to hundreds of thousands of dollars

Good "feng shui" for the person selling them. :roll:

I like that, every time I here someone (looks at g/f) :roll: bring up "feng shui", have bed here, picture there... good luck, centuries old traditions, blah blah blah :lol:

Yea i agree Frenchy, dont really believe in all of that, its just a marketing tool, they arent as popular as they were a couple of years ago.

I just like them cause of the colours, i know that heaps of people are againts them, cause of the X breeding thing.

I just thought people might like to know they were available, ive only seen them once before, a couple of years ago

As far as I know they have been available for some time - at ridiculously high prices. I personally think they are very ugly fish but lots of people like them.

They have become a major problem in Asia as people get sick of them, but can't kill them cos that would be bad luck, so they dump them in the waterways. They are killing native fish and destroying plantlife.

Yea i have read that as well caryl, its a shame people cant be more responsible.
