Also had a result on the way home as a local guy was selling a reverse trio and a pair of

LABEOTROPHEUS TREWAVASAE THUMBI WEST AND CHILUMBI at £4 a fish so thought id check em out and they where amazing and massive! well over 7 inches a fish! he also has a breeding group of Lethrinops Red caps and said he will drop me a line when the fry get big enough to sell!

so a good fish day

[mark34]

very nice looking forward to this weekend

 

[rifty]

what are you getting hap or mubuna?

can recommend the hai reef aulonocara and lithobates

 

[lilirish]

Wow! What size tank(s) do you have?

 

[rifty]

i have a few lol

 

[MBOU]

I adore the Lithobates!! They have such funny but beautiful bug eyes and they seem so easy going!

 

[rifty]

bug eyes? mine dont???

This is my main male

 

[MBOU]

*drools* he is gorgeous! Nicer than mine! Lol though mine was a very battered sub dom male so we will see how he does with his lady in this tank.

They do have really bit eyes though! I'm so used to seeing mbuna I guess...

 

[rifty]

i see your point compared to mbuna they do have big eyes!

good quslity ones seemed hard to find in the uk but a few more are now about! my only advice for conditioning lithobates is around tank mates until big enough they struggle with most fish in the tank i have found?

 

[Malawi MaD]

Very Nice fish mate especially the thumbi west's love seeing them at their full size.

 

[rifty]

very cool fish plus a real good price for adult fish imo!
also the guy has red cap lethrinops growing on too was icing on the cake!
wish i had got more Aulonocara Hai reef tho as probs getting a couple of 4 foot tanks this week! lol
