I am looking for a mated pair, or at least a definite male & female, of Cichlasoma Festae. Preferably the smallest possible while still being able to determine male from female. Will pick up if close. Please get back to me ASAP either on here or facebook, http://www.facebook.com/chris.kragoblin.krabbe. E-Mail me at, Krabbe_c@yahoo.com.
 
I have a 9" male and a 5.5-6" F1 female. Not super close but I'm in Metro Detroit area. Could drive to Toledo.

Can you send me some pictures? And what's the possibility of getting a spawn out of the pair? I'm really wanting to breed these guys because it is damn near impossible to find TRUE Red Terrors in the Cincinnati and Northern Kentucky area.
 
Check out FaceBook album, they breeding pair in the flower pot is for sale! www.FaceBook.com/FestaeFactory

So you will ship fish? In your case I don't really need a proven pair. I would like to get the smallest definite male and smallest definite female to start my own breeding. I am wanting to purchase these fish ASAP though so if you can get back to me on prices and maybe send some pictures of some you have available that would be awesome!

Below is of the pair I mentioned.


This is that same pair next to a tank with my wild caught pair.

Let me think on it. Toledo is a pretty far drive. I still might want them though. If I can't find anyone to ship then I will be getting a hold of you soon. You do have a nice pair. Have you gotten them to spawn at all?
 
I just put them together this week. They spend most of their time on the same side of the divider so I'm optimistic that a pair will bond. We'll see.
 
Cool. Well I'll let you know if I still want them. They're kinda in the size range i'm looking for, but i'd prefer a bit smaller if possible. If I can't get a pair local or get some shipped within the next few weeks then I will get back with you and we can work out a meeting spot and price and what not.
 
Still looking for breeding pair! Or maybe even a dozen 2"-3" juveniles. I would prefer them shipped unless you are within reasonable driving distance from Cincinnati, Ohio. PLEASE message me with any available with pics and prices! Please & Thank you!
