[Snake42490]

Hey guys.. thought i would get some pictures of my tank up.. just got done cleaning them up for the most part.,. haha i kinda forgot to wipe off the glass so there are some water marks oh well.. tell me what you think,

Here is my main tank 55 gallon

These are my fry from my Red Zebra ( she just spit yesterday.. at least 6 of them shes still holding more gah haha)

These are my week old fry from my 1 inch yellow lab.. i know crazy huh

These are my F1 Cynotilapia Afra cobue mozambique (Just got them in last week.. very cool fish) they are still very shy.. Most of the time they have these amazing colors.. then i stick a camera up and they go dull on me haha..

This is my Red Zebra that spit yesterday. she held for 25 days i think she looks pretty good for not eating for that long

This is my lab that was holding

And this i would most likely call The alpha male.. He is always up in my females grill.. its kinda funny

Nice looking and and the fishe are looking healthy which is always a bonus.

Personaly i would not worrie about the fry, they produce so many of them they be fine with the parents. i never try my fry and have loads of them, well with yellow labs and red zebra's that is.

nice tank man, really clear pictures too.

The fish you called the F1 Cynotilapia Afra cobue mozambique looks really like one of mine which was sold to me as melonchromis exasperatus? Is it the same fish but with different names or do they just look really similar?

They are different fish chish. Exasperatus were actually renamed to Melanochromis Joanjohnsonae in the 80's - head shape is actually pretty different when you see them in the flesh or in pics at the right angle and C.Afra Cobue get quite a lot of yellow along with the blue as they grow - real little stunners.

Here's a decent link on Joanjohnsonae, which should help confirm the identity of your fish.

OOOh petrocla (not sure of spelling and typing this is even longer then just looking it up!!! oh well to late now LOL)

These are great little fish and i love them.

How many do u have hiden in there then?

Hi ferris, sorry dont mean to hijack thread, that link shows a male, so mine I am thinking must be a female as it looks totally different to that one in the link, and does have yellow spots down the dorsal fin, but its just a juvenile so maybe it'll change.

Cracking pictures of your fish though snake, really clear.

I have 6 Syno Petricola. They are such an amazing fish to watch.. they are darting all over the place.. they were very shy at first but now mine will come up and feed from my hand. ill find a pic with all of them out and about

 

[Maximus]

Sexy fish.

How much did the syno's cost you?

 

[Snake42490]

I ended up paying 75 US $$ with shipping and all. They were worth it haha..

Cool.

Again, great fish.
