Hi cichlidmaster - I have a question. I'm looking for aulonocaras rubescens but none of the fish suppliers I've asked know what I mean. They've offered me auloncaras ruben reds - are they same fish with different names?
Can you tell me then, are these fish the ones listed in the fish club as Aulonocara Sp. Rubins Red? If so i have seen some pics of these fish, they are beautiful. Prehaps my first fish club order ? 8)
Yep Gaza - I think they are. They really are a beautiful fish. :love: I fell for them the first time I saw a pic of them. I have 3 on order in my LFS and hopefully I should be able to collect them in a weeks time.
Will the rubens get on with the other fish in the tank? I have 3 electric yellows, Sam the bristlenose, 3 featherfins and a pseudotropheus elongatus (Mr. Bloo) and of course the 3 marbles. I want to complete the tank with the rubens.
My elongatus is a pain in the a*** :grumpy: He's quite a bully but now that the electrics are growing bigger, they tend to put him in his place every now and then. I think though, that if he gets too aggresive, then I'll trade him in - but he's soooo good looking (and knows it) I want to try to keep him if possible
