I know where you live
I had a fish club meeting today. During the meeting, a lady stopped by and offered us some fish. She said they were fry from two of her Africans. She told us the they were bumblebee/ Red Zebra hybrids. Now, I know it is possible for them to hybridize, but the fry look identical to red zebras. Which is making me think the lady who kept them had it wrong? Maybe she is right. I am uncertain. Here is a video of them:
I am sorry about the quality. I have 11 in a 47g tank with a male multifasciatus. The largest are at 2 inches, the smallest at 1 inch. So, what do you think? It really does not bother me that they may be hybrids, considering almost all cichlids are not 100 percent pure in stock (except for maybe angels and discus). But regardless, if I do not become attached to them, I may sell them in october at an auction, and I don't want to label them as hybrids if they are not. Their selling availability would be compromised. They do look nice though.
