Help identify south american cichlid

Beto you traded my baby! Sigh, oh well....you should've kept, they are gorgeous when maturely colored. And even though large, would have been fine with your blend-they are VERY gentle and easy going!

Exile-they will normally hide from any aggression if place in tank to hide. The sevs will easily kill him. Sounds like he is really stressed and scared. Is there place for him to hide? Laege tank?

He is good now. My little group of chocolates stick together. I have extremely nice Severums. He/she looks pretty good now but is still a little stressed.

Oh good to hear. He's from good stock, can send you pics of parents, he close to a year old now. His color better? Looked washed out in pic. My sevs sweet too, but occassionally get a testy one and it gets culled real fast.

Wish I had your panda cichlids
