Just an update on the Festae

I have always preferred the older look. Shows distinction.

Love the old weatherd look they have. If there coming up to ten years old I think there in pretty good condition, breeding isn't pretty with alot of species.

If you like old and weathered here's a couple of close ups of the old man

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.

As far as differences I can't say. These came from
Ecuador if that helps any.

I got them from a guy who was a biologist for the Catawba valley science center in Hickory NC.
He had went on a collection trip and brought some back he spawned those fish and these are from that spawn. So these are F1 from Ecuador. As far as getting fry I have some but I do not ship.
