The very first cichlid that caught my attention was the red texas 
and almost a year later I finally have some red texas 
, a few green texas and 1 regular texas. Definitely enough to start my breeding project . Sorry for the crappy cell phone pics and scratched tanks!!
Fading male, unconfirmed fertility. Im not too fond of his face but I love his color and redness.
Faded female, i call her Tweety cause shes yellow and has a parrot face. I dont like her face but I love her colors
Unfaded fertile male. Hes bulky and chunky. A monster in the making.
Fading female that I just picked up today. She is very sexy.
Last week I put Tweety and my unfaded male in a divided 75 but there wasnt too much love between the two. So on 12/15 I added another divider and tossed in a female green texas. Almost immediately the male and the green texas starting showing interest in each other. On 12/16 I removed Tweety back to my 135 and removed their barrier. Today I came home from work and found eggs in the flowerpot! Although Id like him to be paired with another red texas, Im just itching to get some RT fry and Id like to confirm his fertility myself. And now for the important stuff, PICS!
Comments and advice are more than welcomed!
