You know they are breeding these in ponds down there now.... That's why they are super cheap now. Does he consider that Wild?
Yes he does know this lol. Also there has been a batch of intermedia going around that supposedly aren't intermedia, they were a mix. Idk how true that is since I just got back into the cichla game. I know my main people to always get fish from.

Mine are from Rapps and from the Rio Casiquare but supposedly pond bred. Although Rapps explain to me that the whole captive bred pond thing is a little iffy and it's highly possibly that they sign that off on the permit so that they can export them out of the country due to the regulations getting stricter.

Glad to know they are from the same location as the Rapps ones. I had a feeling they were from the same location. Who has the biggest one of these recently imported intermedia over the last year?

I believe they are all around the same size. FunWow! FunWow! has a big intermedia but from a different source and supposedly wild. It looks nice.
