Nice fish Caribemob. Great rare pickup

What? A friend of mine has one that's twice that big!

Really!!! That freaking big?? That I would love to see. There does seem to be a lot of wrong size info out on some of these rare fish. I guess not enough people keep them to a long age to know full adult sizes.

I'll see if I can steal....er, I mean BUY him. He's in an indoor pond right now. He came in that size from Conkel. There were several very large specimens of godmanni and intermedius, probably 9" on average, but this one is like a 2 litre coke bottle with scales!

Awesome male, so much for some literature that says they max out at 5-6".
Yeah that's way off but not alot of people have kept these fish, so info is probably half and half... cchhccv says he seen a 18'' male which I have to see to believe, but if so that's great:D
 
No, no...... Not 18"!

Just twice as big as the 5-6" max cavamart referred to. Similar to the situation with aquarium specimens of African Mbuna, I doubt that you'd see many or any that big in the wild though.

Oh ok 12-13'' maybe but they get nice and beefy:D
