atabapo red lenticulatas

[fishman76092]

Wow, they are indeed some of the best looking lents I've seen yet. Love the thick, prominant barring and the concentration of spotting on the face. Gorgeous for sure! Looking forward to seeing them progress and get even more attractive for you!

Thanks for sharing the pictures! Grey needs to update his pictures of them. Perhaps you should offer to let him use the pictures you took?

I CONCUR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Eggie!

Wow these are so nice. I'm tempted to order one but at a max size of 15" he probably one wouldn't play too nice in my 72G

how big is that tank, plus you can put pikes together, i thought they were really aggressive to their own kind, please shed some light on this

the tank is 125gal there are 3 pikes 7-9 inches they get along great right now, i am hoping they pair up. then i wiil sell the 3rd one. i also have 4 red tiger motas in there with them no problems at all.

cool i think i might copy but instead of the red tiger mots,, i think i might go with cuban cichlids

this is how they turn out as adults

You need to post some updated pictures of them in here man. Curious to see how much they have grown and colored up in the last ~ month.

Glad you are loving them. I TOLD you you would love them!! Of course those sp. 'atabapo I' would have been just as fun. I think these guys are a little more rare though.
