    Can all cichlid species be shortbody.

    Do individuals in all species of Cichlids have the possibility of being short bodies? Like a Midas or a Synspilum? Also I know many people don't like short bodies but I don't want to start to a war in this thread, so please don't go after other people.

    Standard Length vs. Short Body Fry

    Can anyone post pics of short body fry to compare to standard length fry? Any age would be appreciated but it would be great to see some less than a month old to compare.
