Thanks, I don't know how many he's had but I remember seeing pics of one he posted, it was the best looking one I've ever seen, seems like it had spots on its back if I remember right.biggoballs;4403400; said:

Unfortunately I lost my second group of P. menarambo to ick, had a heater malfunction and the tank dropped to 70 before I realized it, lost them all.
Haha no worries man thanksJnic;4409526; said:
Unfortunate to hear about the menarambo. They're so prone to ich and fungus, it's ridiculous 
Have you kept any other Paretroplus species?
Wonderful Cross River. I'm on the hunt for one now, but seems to be a difficult wait and see game.

It is ridiculous how susceptable they are to it. The only other Pare I've kept were some P. maculatus, unfortunately I croaked them along with the P. menarambo...everyone was really filling out and coloring up, very healthy fish, amazing how fast they went once that temp dropped.
If you ever get a chance, I really enjoyed the P lamena-nourisatti. I think they're just lamena now. Anyway, they are a bright orange Paretroplus. They can be fairly mean to each other and other fish, but they are really enjoyable to keep. Much hardier than most others in the genus.
