well there goes another thread in the cichla section. to the OP, if you want to breed those two fish, then more power to you. hybrid fish, especially cichla can be some of the most unique fish out there. dont let the self-proclaimed cichla "gods" tell you otherwise. no matter what you or i do, we will always be insignificant in thier eyes.
and you know what i say, who gives a rats ass!!!!!! my life does not revolve around them, these fish, or this forum. this hobby is just a small part of my life. i do what i do and i post what i want. if somebody doesnt like it or agree with it, tough crap. its not gonna make me change what i do or what i say. i could care less what some of the elitist snobs have to say. if i decide to try and breed an orino and a mono, and these guys dont like it, they can go fly a mother loving kite for all i care, cause its not gonna change my views.
and you know what? i wont lose any sleep over it. so MORE POWER TO YOU. i hope they do breed and they survive, so you can come back, show us pics of these awesome fish, and rub it in the face of these arrogant fools
