Nelly's Got His New Paratilapia Polleni

thank you, there is a bloke on aqauriast classifieds selling 2 or three pairs if i remember correctly<havent got time to go find him again, was in the cichlid section :good:
ive been thinking to go to the shop again and see if i cant get hold of any more....bigger chance of a pair,,, :shifty:
 
:lol: prob is shifting them on once they have matured abit, i know people always say its easy but brutis the male jag no one wanted to buy or take him for free until luckily one day my mate took him :huh: strange eh,you see if lfs them marked up for 60pounds + for a semi matured jag, and you cant give away a beautiful big semi matured boy :rolleyes:
 
Ive just got one of these didnt even realise till I saw your post its the same sp. as your lol. Now ill race to to see who can get theres the biggest the quickest.
 
Unfortunatly madagascan cichlids are overlooked in the hobby and the young are difficult to distribute, which means i will not keep many of my fry to grow, which is a shame as these are very endangered fish that probably soon become extinct in the wild. But posting photo's of adults seems to have increased interest on this site due to their beauty, which is how i came to know about them, trying to get other madagascan species to have a biotype tank has now become a hard task, but i won't give up lol
