Pitiful Frontosa Face :-P

Here is a new picture of Frankenstein and Bummy (named bummy after she had an infection, guess where Ya I know, ) )

The thing is, he is doing the so called cichlid mating dancy thing that cichlids do......which is a little more embarassing than most other cichlid species, I don't think I need to explain it, his face says it all

He's like, "PLEEEEEAAAAAAASSSSEEE?"

The cool thing about it, is that his back goes a goldy-brown when he is "in the mood" Looks pretty strange actually

And he even has the same expression as the poor fronty.... gee I AM mean...

I bet that's not the only time I am gonna have to make that face

WOW. Like great big puppy dogs. You got those in the same tank with a Fryeri and Aulonocaras? How's that working out?

man thoes are some freaking beautyfull fishes !

FOTM for the pic you gave in the 1st post, it's awsome

Hello NYmbuna! The frontosa, Aulonocara, and fryeri get along just fine...the fryeri grew up with the frontosa...he was 1.5" when he joined them and is 7" now...and I have never seen one with more perfect coloration...the only fish he picks on in the tank is the male peacock and his female

Sometimes he will have the odd fight with a frontosa, but it is usually the front that starts it....the 10" kigoma (Gargamell) is the boss of the tank, but sometimes, just sometimes the fryeri (Sammy) will face off with him to try and show him up....I don't even know why he tries, Gargamell is a monster

...anyway, here is a pic of Sammy for ya, considering I bragged his colors....his white stripe goes all the way from the fold in his upper lip, all the way to around the back of his tail fin. I have been offered 250 dollars for him from one of my lfs's. ...and to think I bought him from that lfs as a female

....hard to see the white in his face in this pic...but you get the idea
