I doin't think this has been done yet, but it seems there are a good amount of people that own them. I'm going to start off with a. robertsoni and a. rostratus.

Great thread!

Nice color of those robertsoni. I like the look of that fish, will have to search for some! I've got some juvenile alfari and rostratus that I haven't photographed yet so I'll try to post some of those as well.
Here is a young male A. altifrons:

A pair of A. longimanus from a couple years ago:

Haha, im not sure about sending any to the Us, but my largest male and largest female are on the brink of spawning!!! Hopefully i'll have some egg pictures within the next few days!
 
Fishmike-I love your altifrons. I had an altifrons, but it was killed by my rostratus. I didn't hink I would have any real aggression issues when the fish were 2''.
Anyone have any luck mixing any astatheros sp.? They seem to be more aggressive to conspecifis then any other CA cichlid I have ever kept.
