Anyone with Cichla sp. "fogo"?

Why am I not surprised that Wes chimes in on this one...he must have a master plan to acquire some fish for me.

I wish, I always try to stay on top of the game on everything, I never do give up. But this one is taking a longer time than it should have... I will have some cichla cf. brokopondo coming in, 2.5" captive bred, first time ever, and from A grade parents too! http://www.monsterfishkeepers.com/f...-instructions-carefully&p=6644103#post6644103

Id really like one of those brokopondos and a BB grouper.

Rather than stealing the photo to show I'll just bump this thread for Cichlaman79's viewing pleasure.

No known fogos in captivity. Last known died in Tsunami in Japan.

Some have fogos in captivity just not in the US. If you go on Facebook and instagram you can see them.

It's refreshing to see that the trademark fogo coloration isn't solely a reproductive enhancement.
