Finally got my hands on 2 Festae fry! They're about 1.5-2". They are from FlatfishLeo's wild pair:) I'm pretty sure they're UmbeeKing bloodline, but could be wrong. Either way they're awesome! Hopefully acquiring more within the next two weeks, I'm attempting to grow out a pair or two. Right now they're in an acrylic 55g with 4 corydoras and a common pleco. Let me know what you think!! I apologize for the poor picture quality, the acrylic tank is well over due for a polishing.

Congrats on your pick up:) but if you think about it, if they are from Leo's wild pair then how could they be from from Umbeekings bloodline?... But I'm sure they will look great once they grow out:)

I think he may have gotten his from Umbeeking haha. I dont really care where they came from, they're awesome and i cant wait for them to grow out!!
 
Good pick up. Not from UK line nor related to them. Male is from Mainly Cichlids. Female from a private seller or LFS, can't remember exactly.

I'll try my best to post pictures of these guys at least once a week! I also posted a picture of the current set up, for these guys to grow out in before the 125g.

Nice. I have two about the same size in a 40 gallon breeder. The colors are coming in good. They share the tank with two umbees that are a little smaller and one 1.5" dovi.
