Cichla ID?

BellycrawlerJaws · Apr 18, 2011

This guy was at my LFS and labeled as a "Lukanini" - I was curious which species of cichla it is.

kinda small to tell... prob ocell or mono

BellycrawlerJaws · Apr 18, 2011

Yeah that was my thought, they wanted $35 for him, he's about 2.5", kinda skinny

Ocell.

Btw - apparently he only eats feeders, would he eat crickets since they're "alive"? I feel like that'd be healthier

Lol try it but I'm sure it's more used to guppies. You could also try live ghost shrimp

Trueeee, yeah he only eats guppies apparently, but yeah ghost shrimp is a good idea, now to find someone who actually sells them around me
