Black Stripes - Different Continents

An ocean separates them on earth, a couple of couches and a table separate them in my basement. Here are a couple of my favorite fish.

My male convict representing the New World.

My male burundi frontosa representing the Old World.

Nice fish!!! thats a neat con!

Thanks! I traded off a male con a few years ago and regretted it. So I picked this guy up a year or so ago and have been beefing him up. I need to get a frontal picture to show you how beefy he is. I think he has a little "hump" as well. Thanks for replying!

nice frontosa.

Thanks, I bought the fronts online in May/June, they have grown a bunch since then. Here is what they looked like when they came off the ups truck!

nice fish!

regardless of what most folks think of convicts, a big male like that is always an impressive fish to me

I agree, convicts are under-rated IMO as well. I promised myself to grow one out and keep him for life!
