Title reminds me of an old Pink Floyd tune - "Several species of small furry animals gathered together in a cave and grooving with a pict." As a recall, the title is longer than the actual song.
Great thread! I've got a few severum photos to share as well.
If anyone is interested in purchasing any of these species, please just ask. I've got most of them available at this time.
Heros notatus
Heros sp. 'Inirida'
Heros efasciatus
Heros sp. 'rotkeil'
Heros severus - a mouth brooder
Heros sp. 'Atabapo' - an undescribed mouthbrooder
And just in case anyone missed the thread featuring the sales of John O'Malley's (Celtic Samurai) fish, here are some photos of Heros species he was keeping.
If anyone is interested in purchasing these fish, please email me at
bigguapote1@verizon.net.
Some were sold, some are still available - including a wild adult pair of the sp. 'Atabapo' as seen immediately above.
There are many more S. American cichlids and catfish still available from his collection. They are all listed on a thread in the Vendor's Forum under Tangled Up In Cichlids.
Heros sp. 'red Peru'
Heros sp. 'Uatuma'
Heros sp. 'Cameta' or 'Marajo'
Heros sp. 'Puala Coaro-Rio Negro'
