    They were handed to Choy for photography purposes by a friend who bred them and are not meant to be freebies for anybody.

    Pretty!!! I want!!!

    Honestly, these species hardly makes it to the shops. And those in the shops are quite badly discolored already, probably due to too much inbreeding.

    Sometime, I wish the commercial breeders will take pride in their livestocks and strengthen the gene pool by adding wild/new specimens. Commercially farmed Corydoras panda is another example. They look so feeble and hardly last very long.

    Cheers,
    I have dwarf cichlids in my tanks! Do you?

    Benny, if you want to get your hands on them you're welcome to join us for the killie gathering on the 28th of May, Saturday at Eco-culture/Cichlids Forever.

    I believe some or a single pair of this species with location will be available on that day.

    Would love to, but have made arrangements to go to Aquarama that weekend. Looks like I have to miss this one.

    Benny, the Gathering is on a Saturday and there's still Sunday. If you can confirm, even a brief visit (HA!), then I'll go dig into my tanks and see what I can come up with So how?

    BTW, there will also a few species, for display only, and I'll bet you've never seen these before. Bring your gear along (Choy too!) and I'll make it worth your while. See you then?
    I'm back & keeping 'em fingers wet,

    Ok. I'll try to pop by with Mr. Tree and Nonn if I can make it. The picture of Arowana and killifishes has been sent to you via PM.
