    Sighting 30 Apr 08: Rocks and some dwarf cichlids at C328

    Was at c328 earlier tonight and saw that they had some medium-large pieces of granite that were nicely shaped (not square and blocky). The following dwarf cichlids also caught my eye: Ap. agassizii 'Tefe' and T. candidi. I believe these are remnants from the shipment 1-2 weeks back, but the Ap. agassizii 'Tefe' in particular is stunning. the T. candidi is not bad. they also had a pair of Betta macrostoma for the wild betta lovers out there =)

    nothing else much new today, but uncle said that another big batch of apistos is coming in next week!

    Ha same here. Good luck to you. No worries, of lately C328 often or not brings in apistos.

    i believe they had a mendezi pair in stock when i went this week. but the quality wasn't too good in that pair unlike the agassizii tefe and the t. candidi so i didn't mention it. they had a pair of so-so alenquer too

    This must be the sole reason.

    The first look on this fish will turn off most people as the fish appears to be dark under the position it was placed at.....further invstigation and a closer look will reveal that the fish is actually in good condition and the lighting and position was the cause of the darkness on the fish, further more, on a closer look, the fish has excellent base coloration not only on its cheeks but alo extends out to its belly to some extend....this pair has a good potential to grow up into a beauty feed it well...

    Thanks, I placed them under bright lights to check before packing them (more for id, condition), they are still young...good potential.
