Gorgeous fish Dan.
I like the catazaja biffa the most.
I guess the dwarf cichlid idea is on the back burner?
It's still something I want to do, maybe try set it up as a eco tank using minimal electricity and water, but I don't know if I am willing to sell him.

Max size is around 14 to 15 inch, but they do get really bulky.

Niiiiice!!!!!! If I don't have any luck with my black Nasty I'm definitely going to give them a shot
I check tangled up in cichlids, cichlids of the americas and the wet spot like every day and I've never seen this catch location for sale lol. Maybe somebody knows of another good source. Would love to give them a shot someday too

Mine was collected by German breeder, he bred them then sold some of the fry to oddball express a UK importer which is where mine came from. Recently Germany and holland are some of the best places to pick up ca cichlids due to the amount of private collectors bringing back fish.

Ooooh. May be visiting a UK LFS later since I'm visiting in London again. Used to live here actually :)

In the US there is good variety as well!
