yo guys my question is do fogo's gain blood red stains around there lower part of there gill and insanly red finage as they are growing?
 
Fogo's look exactly like orino's with more red,are you sure that orino don't just turn that color at full maturity in they're native environment?Why have we never seen fogo in someones aquarium anywhere?? Let's be honest. how many people have orino's that are over 2 feet plus that have the chance of turnig red like fogo?I think fogo might just be orino but I could be wrong.
 
samurai -h has fogos ... you never seen em but we have..!!!!

Yeh, so basically your saying, all the scientists who study cichla on location in brazil and identified them as a different sp. must be out of their minds ay?? I dont think so dude :screwy:, im pretty sure Fogos arent Orinos with red on them. If so, how come we havent seen photos of Orinos with Reds on their bellys??
