I bought three planning on keeping only 2, but not for profit, just so I could get the nicer ones and have another one in CO. Now that one died, I only have 2 and I'm keeping them.

If we see more availability next season then my shoulder is leaning more of the fact that they are bred in an controlled environment being readily available in abundance. In addition the ones from circa 05-06 would definitely be in the breeding size so I'm sure many others on a smaller scale of breeding has already begun the steps of breeding them. Regardless if they are banned from Brazil from export their are close neighbors from Brazil that can export and has the same environment that can have breeders in a pond? I'm sure there are big Azuls neighboring Brazil from breeders who this is as $$$$
Shoot, I'm sure if someone in FLA has a pond and has ones attained back from circa 05-06 they are close to producing some fry.
All theories so who knows.

And crazy/hectic/expensive and EXTREMLY rewarding. Azul merely put the dot on the "i" and crossed my T's. As for those who are selling? Cichla keeping isn't for everyone. If you loose 3 then I guess they figure I better make money back on the other 4 or 5. If you think about it and look in this thread. Everybody is looking for something, everywhere, all the time.pwmin;2900060; said:actually, there are 4 in CO...remember![]()
Don't know homie and he may not even love the CICHLA like we do!
I hope he make's it.
