Who has koliba laps here?

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
I'll probably go ahead and pick one up. You got yours from segrest right?
The one DMD posted is a wild caught koliba from Toyin of Rehoboth Aquatics. Not a CB.

If you're refering to the ones from aquabid/ebay. Those are tank raised. Post a link or photos for others to view

Fishonlinerus Koliba are Captive Bred. Same applies to Seagrest, and Wet spot are also CB. Putting aside their small size, all appear to be farm raised (CB). Best price is from Wet Spot @$35 ea.
 
Some of these look great as juveniles. There was a great discussion on this. Link provided below.

From my observation, these laps have spots when young and becomes faint when older. This product comes in 2 base colors ranging from golden brown to pewter silver :)

Thats one of the reasons im on the fence about a lap because i know if i got a golden brown one i would be extremely happy but theres no way to gurantee...

The golden-brown-yellow one is nice. I've personally seen both these color types at Wet Spot. I took that pic, lol
