New Midas Cichlids

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
The one on the upper right looks Midas the one to the left looks RD. I'm only going off one photo and they are most likly, Midevel. I looked at Seagrest Fish Farm's web site and, well it's a fish farm. They both look like nice fish as well as the one from Petsmart. No matter what you'll end up with a good looking fish and at least one will probibly have a nice hump. I wouldn't garentee they are 100% pure as your LFS and Petsmart might be buying from the same fish farm. If you're satisfied with it as a wet pet they are fine good looking fish.

Yeah I am not sure on who supplies each Petsmart but it seems they get their fish from the same source regardless which part of the country. I don't care if they are pure as long as one get beefy looking and grows an ok hump.

If this venture doesn't work out then I will buy from a trusted source.

Ah Seagrest. Seagrest Trimac

I'd say they're mutts. You sure do go through fish quickly.

A lot of it stems from impulse buying and no direction. But I know what I want now and what I wanna do so I am keeping most of what I have now. Right now I need to get rid of the Red Devil and down the road I will get rid of most of my growouts. I will end up keeping 1-2 of my 5 texas, and 1-2 of my 5 vieja and obviously 1 midas.

If only you were close. I have a nice 8" male that needs a good home. F2 and looking great. Got his parents from Rapps

If only... I saw your growout threads
 
I've been to Segrest before. It's a really nice facility, but it's just a holding facility. They don't breed their own fish-- they bring in fish from hundreds of different farms and then distribute them throughout the U.S. and world.

Having said that, when I was there they had two little pure white devils that I really considered bringing home. But I'm over buying fish that I have to get rid of later. :( It's too sad.
