On and off. I was hoping for a really gold one like mojo use to have. Still a work in progressNice community you got going there. Has the jaguar been fading this whole time or just recently?
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.Naturally occurring? Who caught the originals? I always thought this morph was linebred while the xanthic was natural.. Please explain
Beautiful mojo, it was your old big male that got me the jag bug. Must of had 6 normal before i got my hands on these. Never new they were a natural morph.I got some of the same. Beautiful fish. It's a naturally occurring morph. They call it the "fish of a thousands casts" because of it rarity. heres some of mine.
