Growouts: Orino, Broko, Pinima, Intermedia

like 4-5" I'd say

I think they still look amazing. Love the spangles.

Pardon my ignorance, I am brand new to chichlas. What is the allure to pure bred vs. Farmies? Is it dollar value, bragging rights, breeding purposes? Is it bad if they are hybrid? I’m still trying to figure out what mine are so I’m curious about all this.

it's personal taste I guess, but these specifically are from Indonesia where fish are injected to inhibit spawning behavior for mass productions. I'm just a wild caught pure bred kinda guy where I care about catch locations because they effect the adult colorations and patterns. Imo I prefer their natural beauty as oppose to man made colorations and patterns. But to each their own

Ahh. Thank you for explaining. I can understand why you would be this way.

Wow. Love the spangles. I think orino is my fave so far out of the chichlas.

The second one from bottom seems to be a different colour, is it a different type (collection point) or is that just a different angle of camera?

Nice I thought it was azul because of the colour. So is pinima a collection point or an actual species?
