I wanted to post that I was informed that Don Conkell will be coming to Pruess pets some time in the next 3 or so months!!!!

He will be speaking and it will be free for anyone to join!

I will keep this updated!

If you are selling FH's and people are buying them, what is the reason for not selling other large amphilophus, Parachromis, Vieja and so on.?
Most FH's grow faster than festaes and are the same adult size as jags etc. (for the most part)
Have your boss read this thread.
Let him/her know there is interest in all sizes of cichlids and people are willing to make the drive. Just remember to stock more of the common cichlids while maintaining a few of the rarer ones on hand.

Usual full size for a FH is approx 10-12". Some are bigger but not usually. My male is right around the 11" mark.

I am considering having my boss read this! He would probably like to and needs to!! LOL

Great link! Thank you. I'll be sure to have the owner look at it!

I think we have had the Bleekeri before?? Not since I've worked there but if im not mistaken they are popular!

12" or less.. Only because majority of our clients have smaller set ups. Usually around the 55g mark.

I will be shooting for the Argentea and maybe the RTMs!

Dovii...














NOT.





I would say Nics, Cutteri, and smaller Crenicichla like Frenata, and Saxatilis.
