Kelberi Update

[krichardson]

Yeah I'm a lurker that loves cichla. I'll have to start up a thread/be more active lol. I've got a ~16" mono (locally received him so origins unknown) and a trio of kelbs sold to me as bahias from imperial tropical with the biggest pushing 18 inches. They aren't the prettiest but the personality is worth it!

Cool,looking forward to checking out your thread.

Can't wait to see them. Have you had them for a while? Those are some big bass

Yeah I've had 2 of the kelbs since April of 2015 and I got the Mono around 10" about 9 months ago. The largest kelb was a rescue from a local classified ad which was about 8 months ago.
