Crenicichla question:

[tomka123]

I am reaching out to you guys to see what type of crenicichla are hard to find or most desired. I am a cichla collector & am putting together an import from Brazil. The supplier has numerous types of crenicichla to choose & it would be best to up my order to cover shipping. Please let me know what to look for. Thanks!

There's 86 recognized species in the genus crenicichla, tomka...

Here's a brief list of some, but you'll need to research the web for images.

Rare and hard to find is somewhat relative...however I'd sell myself on the corner for a Crenicichla rosemariae

Thanks for the feedback! I searched some old posts & they seem hard to come by so I will try to get a bunch of them!

Compressiceps are a dwarf species and not too rare. Tapajos / Atabapo red pikes always sell very well.
