Not that I'm all that into hybrids, sa cichlids or ca cichlids but these three really caught my eye.

Purple rose queen.

Piebald midas

Fireman's flower horn.
Nice looking fish for sure.

Yeah that one really had me thinking. He looked great, a little shy though. The queen had a great personality. All where pretty good sized too, the queen was an easy 10" the midas around 6" or so the FH I'd say 4-5" .

How is the midas a hybrid I thought that is a naturally occurring fish?

It's not but I didn't want to split up the post.

I saw these at a lfs. The owner said they're jag & red devil hybrids. Not among the friendlier fish, tho.
What do you guys think? ?

The one in the second pic sort of looks like a 'golden' jag.

Actually, I don't understand. Is the golden jag natural?

I haven't kept them ,from what I know it's a selectively bred colour morph(don't take me up on that though) .Maybe someone who has experience with them will chime in?

I would think the body would be more round. I really don't see the Red Devil mix.
