Believe me i can see how that could happen. Not very active in the tank. Almost gave them away a few times. Just too damn stubborn to admit I couldn't get the shot. lol Thanks brother. Took a while but worth the wait.

Gymnogeophagus balzani

Gymnogeophagus balzani. I’ve had this fish for several years. During that time, I’ve never been able to get it out in the open for photos. Finally broke down and put in four tinfoil barbs as dithers. Took a couple weeks, but finally tonight started cruising the tank. The female is below guarding...

New photos of big red. Parachromis Dovii “red morph. They haven't bred in a long time. The male is just too nasty. Couple days the female hung out on the nasty side. Noticed she did have eggs. Saw her moving the eggs deeper into the pipe. I do believe the male no longer fits inside. Then last...

Check out this platinum lunker, Amatitlania nigrofasciata. I have three of them this size. As a reference for size, my photo tank is nine inches wide. A year ago I emptied a 220 gallon tank and restocked it with Convict cichlids and HRP's. Easier to maintain and entertaining to watch...

thanks. I believe seven years.

Some updated photos of my Parachromis dovii “Red”. The male is 18”, female 14”. Love this animal.

Thanks folks. Wishing everyone of my MFK family the best.

Greetings fish peeps. Not sure if anyone attended the convention this year. It hosted four national clubs. ACA, American Live Bearers, Killifish, and ANG-FA (Austrailian New Guinea Fish Assn.) Cool event. Huge attendance. Wated to share my photo entries. I won first, second and third place...

That's a solid plan. And I think you are spot on with your impressions on the sex that you posted. Good luck.

Blue was a photographer’s dream. Never had a bad shot. A ham. Enjoy!

I guess this could be in a different forum, but most who knew him will be here. So sad to hear that the hobby has lost a real pioneer and, for me, a very good friend. If you've been in the hobby for a while and in particular, keeping large cichlids, you probably have heard the name Dr. Wayne...

Just saw that I double posted photos. My bad. Sorry.

Thanks. I have the one hybrid. A guy I knew divorced his wife and closed his store. She called and asked If I wanted it or should she feed it to the dog. lol I'm glad I took it. Hands down one of my favorite fish.

no reason it wouldn’t. Keep em healthy and give them space. Good luck.

thanks for the shout out Cich. Here’s a few of my favorites.

You are correct on collection points. We specifically targeted that tributary for this fish, credited with being “more colorful” than other in the same species. Funny story...we arrived, and my first dip of the net I scooped up a 12” male. What a surprise. I have the photo somewhere. It was my...

I have one very prolific P. Motaguense. One of my favorite of the Parachromis family. The fish from the trio Blanco are generally more red.

Not sure about the first couple, but from what I can see, the bottom might be V. briedohri. Again...as it grows out it may look more like a mutt, but as of now, the head shape and that small splash of color around the eye and head says Briedohri(ish)
