Damn, 15 bucks each! I know that's a good price for monos. But that's not a lot of money.

Good find, look like small monos to me.

Yeah, I know. but i spend a lot of money on live food as it is already. what i meant was fishkeeping in general is expensive. to me, any 2" freshwater fish that is over 10 to 15 bucks is expensive.

Thanks manggg. i hope they are.

at what stage are they considered not as fragile and at what size did you tend to lose your young cichla?

i'd say 6-8 inches is when they get out of the "fragile" stage.
i had the most losses when they were less than 2 inches.

I see. Can they handle weekly 50 to 60% water changes at 2 inches?
