I went to city pets last week and the Texas ciclids they have are exactly what I want and the price is right to me but it was almost instantly apparent that they are suffering badly with internal parasites (sunken in stomachs and bottom of the tank littered with the stringy white poo) I am done with paying lots of money and spending up to several months trying to treat hex

I have decided l would rather catch some native even though less attractive IMO Texans , the prob is I dont have time to go catch them I will pay $5 per " if anyone can catch some for me I need females but will take a nice male also

The natives will blow away anything you can buy in a store..
However if you want a "green texas" you will have to go to mexico.
Herichthys cyanoguttatus is what we have here in texas.
Herichthys carpintis is considered the green texas.
