I do not, but if you want my opinion on common names, I hate them, but I know the Texas cichlid (Rio Grande cichlid)to be Herichthys cyannoguttatum, while the GREEN Texas Cichlid (Pearl-scaled cichlid)would be Herichthys carpintis. Easily confusable, and they can also hybridize to make things even more complicated......sadly not everyone is an expert when it comes to Herichthys, including myself, but those are the common names I have purchased under.Do u have a utube channel Frank
The poster you quoted said very clearly that carpintis and cyanoguttatus are NOT the same species. He simply explained that both have been commonly referred to as Texas cichlids for many, many years.a Texas cichlid is a Texas cichlid and the name should not be used for any other fish. I've met a ton of ppl over the course of a year that don't know the difference ND it's because of ppl like u that see a carpintis and refer to it as a texas cichlid misleading them... Ppl that haven't been in the hobby for 90 years don't know the difference.
Yeah, the only one I've seen being rude here is, well, you.you ppl are just rude here... Like who cares if Im telling ppl something they already, those ppl then need to not reply then if we're going to have it that way... I wouldn't respond to something that someone was answering if it didn't apply to me..
Bartoni are already black and white so how do they go black and white when spawning... Carpintis also turn black and white when spawning and Texas cichlids do not... So now this is why ppl get confused on fish.. My point to my posting from the beginning
Thanks for posting this Jason.I also think the op was the only one that was particularly rude.The poster you quoted said very clearly that carpintis and cyanoguttatus are NOT the same species. He simply explained that both have been commonly referred to as Texas cichlids for many, many years.
