Thanks. Just a LFS trade in--kind of a rescue fish. No idea where it came from originally. He's got a female too but she hides in the rock on the left. Got to find him a new female that likes him more.

Man this is one of the best looking CA tank on MFK. The only one that is as bad ass is owned by the memeber nutter(if memory serves me right). I love how the Vieja maculicauda knows that the cat is not gonna be able to do shxxto it and just swim in front of the tank. Once again beautiful set up and fish looks top notch.
Thanks a lot. The link to the tank is in my signature (click the "125 gallon" line). Lee (nutty) has the nicest CA Cichlid tanks I've ever seen. He makes my tank look pretty amateur IMO. JK47 also has some very nice CA Cichlid tanks with backgrounds, his 300 gallon with a dovii pair is awesome.
He's really grown on me in the last month or so. I was going to sell him at one point but I think he will be staying now. He didn't always look like that--had to treat him for internal parasites and baby him a bit. But after a few months of treatment, NLS and a lot of water changes, he's turned out to be a great looking specimen. He's very funny too as you can see in the video. Very mellow and not a glass banger, but definitely swims right up to me (or my cat
).
bro would you mind posting a side shot of your female vieja maculicauda. i also have a rescue and hes large but his fins are not as pointed as yours. i still believe mine is a male as he has mated with my rose queen which is half red devil half synspilum and shes definitely a female. hes large i would say maybe more then a foot to be honest.
what do you think?
