Cobra Snakeskin/Royal Siks Hybrid Bass

My LFS has some, but I don't have the extra $200 for a fish right now.

JasonsPlecosCichlids has some stunning 6” ones for $160 from memory. I have seen them in person at his house & they’re gorgeous

That's about the same size my LFS has them at for $190.

Getting chunky now. I'm hoping it keeps the spangles as it grows. Pictures do not do this fish justice.

How big is it now? Wonder what their max size is

Around 6-7" and always hungry. Growth rate should be faster now as it has recently started taking pellets . I would imagine that they should max out around the same as Azul if both parents were Azul.

One of my friends had 3 of these and has lost 2 at this size. He seems to think they are prone to neurological issues , as he described twitchy movement and lack of control before death. I assume water params were great as rays/pups on the same system. I have yet to see this in mine , so fingers crossed.
