Orange Rainbow Cichlids

[TheLorax]

Saw the orange variety for the first time at Fish N Pets Unlimited today. I really struggled to try to sex them and picked up two. Does anyone else have any of these? Maybe if I don't get a pair we can do some trades.

Oh wow that will be bright. can you post pic when they settle. thanks

[TheLorax]

Yes, I will. I put them in my 90g planted, but they started eating my plants. So I will probably move them to a new tank first.

That stinks that they eat your plants. But it help to know that they do. My wife likes them and I might try to get a pair for our nextntank.

After seeing this thread and doing a bit of research on these fish I stopped by Fish N Pets Unlimited and grabbed one. Going in a 55 currently with 2 Bolivian Rams and a small red severum. Gonna rehome the Rams soon. Fish N Pets currently has 2 more.
