Anybody Have Photo Or Sp.

[GOT FISH?]

I would like info and photo of a "crossbar" cichlid, believe it is from Lake Victoria...

 

[adambrum]

This is the only pic i could find crossbar I think they are extinct in the wild !

The problem with lake victoria cichlids is there quite rare so finding info is difficult also an id of them can be very difficult because no one has seen them

I keep Astatotilapia Brownae in with my mbuna these guys are tough and im starting to think thats its to aggressive for mbuna but it does look stunning.

Might have to start a vic tank !

 

[GOT FISH?]

Picked up a fish from LFS very similar to that out of the trade in tank...No one there new what is was, but my wife likes it...It hasn't showed full color, but yellow sides and the black bars have shown on one occasion....Dayglow cichlid and several others look very similar also....Kevin

Its probably a sp44, thickskin these are one of the more available vics, As i said be careful so far mine has moved up the alfa stakes in my tank he has beaten a full grown afra a 3" elongatus a 3" red zebra and for some reason is scared of the yellow labs ?

My tank is going a bit wierd at the mo the afra has dropped his colours for the first time the long pelvic has full blown colours the vic is getting way to aggressive and the labs are swimming about like there invincable.

The vics are going soon, i have found someone who will give them there own tank and breed them.
