If you are into the New World cichlids here is the holy grail. I have 4 young adults and 15 juvies. $100 each. Juvies are $20.

jeff rapps has them for $150 and juvies for $25. my juvies are bigger.

damn!!!! those are epic in full colouration

[Rico]

yes they are. thats just a google pic but the females resemble a female festae

[Rico]

hfb gets first dibs but after a few days they are going on mfk and aquabid. Im sure there is no market for them here but just wanted to give a heads up to anyone who knows what these are before i went to the other sites.

In the above pic is that a male or female?

10-12'', I believe.

How large are the juvies?

[Rico]

juvies are close to 2" and they can't be sexed.
