Please look over the link.
http://trophs.com/forums/index.php?s...11&#entry30511
On the link you will find that people are saying there are only two murago. One being the green murago and the other being zongwe. Furthermore, the zongwe is being called (AKA) yellow murago. In other words, the yellow murago is the zongwe.
The conclusion on here is totally different. Here we are saying the yellow murago and the zongwe are not the same but rather two totally different variants.
Requesting help from all experts to resolve the issue.
thanksI ate my fish that died.

Zongwe never have spots on the head.
Murago all have spots on the head.
Yellow Murago, Green Murago only difference is the sunspot, amount of blue color, and amount of yellow in the body. Typically the Green Murago is the better looking because it has more color in it overall.

Funny, but that was the only colony I did not take a picture of last weekend. I didnt feel like cleaning the algae off the glass.Originally posted by myjohnson View PostCan you post some of yours Donald?
thanks.
pm sent.
Personally, I think we should stop using "yellow" and/or "green" when we talk about this fish. Either call it Murago, Zongwe, Lusingu, or whatever is more appropriate to call it.300+RR (8-10 ft x 30"x30") - Waiting to find it... Lake Tanganyikan

Agree Zongwe do not have spots.Originally posted by geoff_tropheus View PostZongwe does not have spots. I know this for 100 billion percent.
Yellow and Green Murago does.
And there is no such thing as yellow and/green murago. It is an advertising gimmick.
