Ranging in size from 6" to many monsters pushing over 2 feet. an absolute massive zonatum male as well as lots of stunning others. we took about 500 pictures today so lots more...

    What do you HATE that everybody else seems to LOVE in the hobby?

    people/ stores purchasing fish knowing full well down the road they will not be able to house properly. Does everything in North America have to be disposible? that and those stupid "infared" aquarium nets! Cause the fish definetly won't sense the movement of the RED net. what Maroons!

    New Genera for an old Aquarium Standard as well as two distinct species

    We don't have to like it or even understand it but regardless they're gonna keep on doing it. I like the idea of giving them proper names i.e: this blue fish we shall call ....TIM and forever he shall be known as Tim! Think it will catch on?

However it has been unclear for along time as to their systematical placement within the phylogeny of the family Cichlidae. At the begining they were regarded as the same species but...
