Introducing My F1 Rapps Labiatus

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Those are nice Labiatus with nice pointed mouths. When I see them with somewhat round mouths I really do not want any parts of them and Vice versa for the Midas. You have some very nice ones there.
 
You will have to get some alfagrog in there to try and keep his lips like that


Got some Larva stone to help out with the lips
 
Its very much the change of feeding behaviour that's changed the lips. I've just installed this Larva rock substraight so maybe that'll increase the lips on mine. :)

Yes that will help, large sharp laver rock and sinking food, make them dig for it. Mine are in my community tank, if I was to dedicate a tank just for labiatus that's the root I would take.
Best of luck with your new one, fingers crossed for a male.
 
This F1 Lab has grown quite a bit (about 4 inches long now) but still no sign of morphing...

Growing well but still no signs of "morphing" I think the Labs take longer to change color that Midas Cichlids...
