Its been a month since I bought my wild caught Cichla Ocellaris "Brokopondo" from Jeff Rapps.
He was approx. 3.5 inches when I got him but he has grown a bit since then. Hes at least 4.5 inches now and really blossoming into a spectacular fish. It seems every day he changes for the better. It seems the red eyes are also fading a bit.
I'm starting my growth & development progress thread for this guy. I will continue posting a new growth & progression photo of him every month.
The 1st photo is the day he came home. The 2nd photo was just taken to show this guy after 1 month.
I added a 3rd bonus photo which was also just taken. This was a real money shot showing both my cichla together.
Now you can get a great comparison of a typical farm raised mono to the Jeff Rapps wild caught ocellaris Brokopondo special.
