Menarambo and Maculatus

[Vince]

Thanks for correcting my spelling icthyophile. I meant surgeon fish, not sturgeon fish. Sorry for that Vince.

Are these fish still available? Hard to find sources for these fish. I think the only supplier is from Europe. I knew someone who was able to spawn the maculatus but the fry would just not survive.

You know I don't even think sometimes that what I typed could be offensive, or harsh. I'm sorry. Sometimes we just don't realize how we come across.

I haven't seen any for sale for about a year now. I sincerely hope that they are not exticnt in captivity also. That is a horrible thought.

I havent seen any for sale for a couple years now. I was looking to get some a few months back but had no luck so I had to settle for a few Green Chromides.

I wasn't offended Vince. There was nothing wrong with your post.

Thanks guys!

I know www.oldworldexoticfish.com has them. Check with them and see if a lfs in your area order fishes from them. You might be able to get what you are looking for.
I know for a fact that their fishes are of great quality and the service is excellent.
A bit late but I hope this helps.

I myself might get back into madagascans... i used to keep P. Nourissati. By far one of the most aggressive cichlids I've ever kept, towards other fish but especially among one another. Nasty little creatures, once a pair spawns everything else in the tank has to be removed, whether the tank is 55 or 355 gallons. They've got some serious teeth too - a nip from an adult male hurts quite a bit.
