Just curious about where all the Sao Paulo Kelberi are at :popcorn:.. I picked one up about 3 weeks ago. Thing is a beast, hes a solid 11" and eats just about anything I throw in ( massivors, krill, conovor floating pellets ect) he is really starting to develope a yellow body on him. Pictures obviouly show no justice but here they are just to get a idea :D

Also if you guys out there that got some sao paulo could post a pic, that would be great :)

Well I know that James (x-tank) had 1 or a few of them but he is the only other person I seen on the fourm with one.. They were brought in from SharkAquarium last April I want to say? I believe they only impoted about 25 or so. They were just called "cichla sp. yellow" they were only like 2" when they brought them in and in only about 8 months he is almost 12" so he is going to be a big Kelberi. I know some of rapps 2nd and some 1st batchers that are about 12" or a little bigger now. and the 1st batch were around since like september of 2008. Going to be interesting to see him grow :D
