My girlfriend wasn't too keen on it and the tanks have taken over the house(4 in the bedroom, 4 in the kitchen and four in the living room to make room in the basement for the 90+ tanks I have down there) so now that she doesn't have any rooms to herself she is a little pissed so we are looking to buy some land and build a fish barn and house.

Great looking fish :)
Nice fish hutch. Damn!!!!!! Some of the nicest peacocks I have seen. Just awesome. Get pics of your fish when you get them from Jim.

Yeah I will. The neyereri and that male eureka red just came in today. He is definately a nice fish and may be comparable in quality to some of the others. Like I said before I pride myself on having nice quality(wild caught show quality when possible) fish to breed. A few were actually caught by Stuart Grant and a majority of them came from his camp, all of which before he passed. The F1 albinos I am told came from a pair he caught in the lake and bred.
I love your fishes, the albino Flavescent is crazy. He looks awesome. I kinda regret not getting the Eureka male. He's very nice.

Yeah I am impressed and happy you talked me into getting it. Looks a lot nicer in person and should mix well with the strain I have. All my females are a lot smaller and I think he might kill them so I have to wait before I introduce his group of girls to his tank. That Flavescent is pretty awesome looking. Doesn't compare to the Albino Eureka though.
Haha. You welcome. I told you the Eureka was nice. He should create nice fry with your females. The line where the females come from is amazing. You need to get pics of the Ngara flametail if you have him.

Ok. I should have a pic downloaded but I will go take another one and post in a couple minutes.

Ok here is my wild Aulonocara Ngara Flametail male. Pics are a little cloudy because I had to cut filtration to that tank because I had a blowout on the tank at the bottom of the rack.

Yep same one. I should of taken pics before I shut down water to the tank. He looks a lot more stunning with nice clear water.

He looks amazing, very beautiful. :drool::drool::drool: When are you going to start selling off fry of your peacocks and victorians?
jhutch
07-11-2008, 7:24 PM
I already do sell juvies from what I have available. As far as Victorians the flamebacks are all I have available from them and I only have 3-5 of them. They are getting some nice size to them.
I can't wait till you sell fry off of your Ngara and some other stunning males. How big are the ruby greens from Nick and when are your fish from Jim arriving? I am going to get my kyoga flamebacks around next week when I get my money.

The Ngara I think I have fry that just moved to a growout tank but not sure. I have a couple blue neon juvies that one is already starting to show color. They are the only two left that are sellable size but my fry tank has around 40 or more in it and the ruby greens from Nick are around 2 inches. I had a male mixed in with another group but I can't find him and that is why I needed another group. I am kinda sure where he is but don't remember and he was showing color. I had albino flavescents but I think that whole group died. As far as anything else all I have for sale are Oto. Lithobates, albino labs, white labs, and yellow labs, chitande masinje, jalo reefs, demasoni, lemon jakes are almost the right size, ob peacocks that are starting to get some nice orange to them from the male in the pic on his website, some split gene albino rubyscenes, albino eureka reds, borleyi kadango, maylandi suphurheads, and I am sure there are more.
Right on man, great work. Keep it up. Your selection of fish has quadrupled. Lol. By the way, I have been having 2nd thoughts about getting the Kyoga Flamebacks and I might get 10 more ruby greens from Laif Demasom at oldworld. A local dealer (His website is Californiacichlids.com) is doing an order at oldworld and I jumped on the group order and asked for 10 ruby greens. So, here I am back to ruby greens. I just couldn't let go of the rubies, because I had 4 females left, plus they are my favorite fish after all. So, I'll let you know how the order goes.

I think I need to get a group order going from old world. I would like to get a bunch of stuff from him.

Exactly. Oldworld carries high quality cichlids and pretty much almost every african you can imagine. I know of many people who have done group orders from oldworld and had great results. You need to try it out.
