not sure what a broko's is, are they common?, I missed the bus on the Xingu's, but want one now.
 
Brokopondo Ocell aren't really common. I believe they came in to the US not to long ago (Last year). I guess the one I thought was a Xingu is a Tem then. Hopefully there will be a local breeder (In the US) that will give us cichla freaks a steady supply of Xingu's in the next few years.

But your cichla collection is a great start. I personally can't wait to see them at 15+'' in your tank.
 
Orino, mono, azul, occel and tem. Fatten that azul up....i see that armatus eyen it up.
 
Wait you got these at Petsmart!!? As in the Petsmart chain? They don't have anything like this at mine!

no, no, no, I was being funny, though it would not suprise me if they did carry some type of bass like the mono, hell if you can carry the pacu then why not... Not promoting that they need to though..
 
Azul did not make it...bummer! :confused: Not sure what happen, water para were good, and he was even eating as if he had been starved. I mean he'd eat or try to eat 4 to 5 minnows at one time. They all be stucked in his mouth as if he was choking himself. Plus the minowos were always tail first with the head sticking out of his mouth. weirdest fish I had ever seen as if he did not know how to eat...
