It's been a while since I posted this pair though it was time to show these monsters
Just an update on the Festae
- Thread starter BIG-G
- Start date
It's no wonder really. He likes to try to beat up his ol lady! But she doesn't take his crap, that's where that thing on his lip came from she ripped his bottom lip off and it healed with that little growth on it. I guess it was still attached and living so it just healed that way.
She's not perfect either. If you notice she is missing the first two spines on her dorsal. He did that to her long ago when they were still young. He beat her up and took the flesh off those spines and they just fell off after a while.
That's one thing about these big cichlids they are fighters! But I swear they are like an old married couple they hate each other and love each other at the same time.
I can imagine when one of them finally does pass on the other probably won't be far behind.

wow.... real beasts as mentioned above.
I am getting a group of six festae next month as part of my import.. do you have any good info on festae of Ecuador vs those of Peru? ("rio tumbes" are the Peruvian ones)
I've done a lot of searching but what I found was non-definitive.
