My asian Keyhole

[Miles]

Has anyone ever seen a Keyhole Cichlid like this before? I think it is selectively bred!

Also a few other pics of bolivian rams and tetras..

You got blue tetras, cool.

Looks pretty much like a wild keyhole to me....whats different about it?

 

[Gr8KarmaSF]

pattern or finnage might be slightly different maybe???

i duno if i like them

Never seen a keyhole display coloration on the finnage, nor have such long lyretails.. Most keyholes I see are pretty drab and beige in coloration. Got this from a LFS who gets all of their fish from an asian transhipper.. They get selective bred fish all the time from the looks of it..

i see them all the time........ infact its the wild ones i never see......... i'm sure there may be slight differences but nothing too drastic........ its not a very popular import therefore "asian" hasnt bred the hell out of it yet....... unlike oscars and some other cichlids...........

hmmm.... I had a pair look just like that. Maybe my pair was imported from asia...

That one is really nice. Most I see are really drab.
