Thanks mate, Merry Xmas to you too.

Have you got msn? Id like to talk more about goes.

Im looking to get into these guys, they are deffinatley cool. Ive discovered that they demmand quite a heavy price though and ive spent ALOT of money this past month. So ill have to hold off for a while.

Sure looks like a female altifrons to me, but I've been known to be wrong occasionally ;)

I hope so, I saw altifrons for $150 each yesterday and I got both of these for $30.

This would be a steal.
 
i have looked through my book and see loads like it but nothing stand out and says ITS ME.
i would just call it Geophagus sp.
