New cichla pickup today confirm id

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Nice. What size are they there?

Here's an update if you wanna check it out.

 
About 4.5 -5in. Is that the ocellaris hybrid at the beginning of vid? Your fish look nice man.

Do you see the guy that is on the bottom? Another mfk'r says that's a hybrid. I wouldn't even know if he didn't say that. And thanks!

His line that runs across his body is thicker than all the rest of the bass. Idk if that makes the difference but he definitely looks a lot different compared to the rest.

That one has some real potential I really like him

I actually think he's the ugliest. Hahahaha... I really want to see them get to their adulthood. I really need to just hang in there.
 
Little update so far these cichla have been stubborn with food. Only wanting blackworms and bloodworms. Tried frozen and dry krill as well with no success so far. These fish are 5-5.5 in size so they need to move past this bloodworm and blackworm thing to better them and me( expense lol). But they are very yellow in color and so far look pretty good.

Hey guys I am new to the cichla keeping but I managed to buy one at 3" from my LFS. Could any body help me to know weather they are pure O's or a hybrid bass, or which species of bass actually is he.
