F1 Amphilophus Citrinellus-Colored

[Ripdevil]

Just placed an order with Jeff Rapps. It will be here tomorrow. Pictures will be up in about 24 hrs. It will be a male with a nice thick body and big head, and hopefully lots of different colors.

which size did you get. im excited

 

[Ripdevil]

I got the 5"

He is in the tank now, doing well, just starting to acclimate. I will get pics soon. didnt know anyone was interested

 

[Ripdevil]

Here he is. And to compare, here is a "midas" from petsmart. Obviously the authentic, real midas is so much cooler(colors, body shape, etc.) but the petsmart midas is a great pet too, great personality and a hunger to match any other fish. The Rapps midas has been here less then 24 hrs and he will need time to acclimate, but I am expecting nothing less then a puppy dog in a matter of a couple of days.

great fish....well it will ba haha They all look so out of porportion at that age/size. give him a couple more inches and he will be really nce. i can definately see the beginnings of a nuchal hump.

I doubt that thing ever had a huge hump, but I he looks good though.

Updated pics ~ moved him into the 75g. These pics were taken during a water change

Very unique looking Midas.
My guess he'll have nice bump on his head.
They look kinda silly with their beaks at that age.
