You need to head out to one of the CCAC general meetings sometime for the monthly auction. Just last month there were two bags of buffalo cichlid fry that went for DIRT!
I think they only fetched 3 or 4 dollars for groups of ten.
I picked one up a few days ago. As soon as he got into the tank he went back to his blue and gray color, instead of brown. As he gets larger I will post some pictures of him... but I think it will be awhile.
hey i just saw 2 of these at my lfs and they both looked greyish blue and one was about 3 inch and one was 2 inch and both ad humps on there heads and they were selling for cheap,,,, i was real interested in them what size tank do they need and certain requirements to house these guys?
My uncles got a breeding pair, their knocking out young all the time. I've got a 4 inch male with a great bump on his head. In england they call them blockheads.
do these only get 4inches long??? if so what can they be housed with??? can they be mixed with other african cichlids???
They get bigger than that my uncles breeding male is about 6 it's the biggest i've seen. they can easily hold their own with other fish.
