Blue ones?

If you find any other than blue, those will be the ones that are more rare.

How big is your pond, I mean tank?

I think he meant the Zaire blues

You'll need a massive tank especially if your already having emporers.

yer emporer cichlids are the biggest cichlids in the world so the 6 u have would need a massive tank. i read about somebody keeping 1 in a 8 x 2 x 2 and that was only just enough room for that single one,

Common Fronts are Burundi, then the Mpimbwe and the most difficult to get are Zaires which are Kapampa, Kitumba and Moba.....there are a few more, but these 3 Zaires are the most sought after.

All can be aquired though.

Good luck
