Just curious if this is still a valid name and I was also wondering if anybody else was keeping these. Great little fish, nice coloration and very pugnacious for their size. I got a pair about 2 weeks ago, was feeding them today and found free swimming fry already.
 
They are now in the genus Australoheros ... but not currently a valid species ... mostly becuase I don't think they've been found again in the wild yet. The current list of even undescribed species doesn't include them. They seem to be in limbo status at the moment.
