Couple of his pals aswell.

Naturally occurring? Who caught the originals? I always thought this morph was linebred while the xanthic was natural.. Please explain

I have no idea where the parents of these originated. These were, in fact bred in the Czech Repuplic...and no doubt line bred. Previous specimens I had twenty years ago had a much more intense pattern. These do not...likely from line breeding. However, Dr. Loiselle has an article about the Parachromis family in the cichlids room companion where he mentions the gold morph and shows a picture...which looks more like my old gold managuense. He was the one that laid the name trivia on me. And I believe xanthic would also be naturally occurring.
