Parachromis question

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Loisellei will get 12" upon Maturity with a very thick body. Motaguense 12" with a thick body but not nearly as close to the Loisellei and Freddies will get around 10" maybe bigger if your lucky. Hey if you want Jags, Motas, Loisellei, Dovii or anything let me know I WILL get it for you as I am doing a Rapps order for some wild caught Jags Hopefully I can afford all of them but we'll see. Let me know ASAP because it going to be very soon. I know he has some incredible Freddies in stock now and AWESOME I mean AWESOME Loisellei in.
 
motas are smallest. absoulute maxing at 12", i have seen both loiselli and freddy's at 14" so 75 gallons would be absoulte min for any speices.
 
I would suggest the Motas as they are a good size and I personally like their look. also Not a parachromis but istlanum are really cool.
 
where are you guys getting this loiselli and freddy maxing at 10-11" info:confused:

i see many in the 13" range

not my tank or vid but i love it very nice set up this guys got

as for which parachromis to chose from it depends what you wan't aggression or color or both ?

motas are great parachromis while the normal ones have some good color the red tiger mota has great red and orange colors the female has some very bright colors they like all parachromis have very differn't personalitys some are some what aggressive and others like to murder they have a good set of chompers more the most other parachromis so if they don't like a fish there strength and teeth make short work of enemys they have been know to disembowle tankmates

loisellies have a very nice gold and yellow coloration and males can have some purpole and blue in them a we'll cared for loisellie is a very pretty fish

freddys i haven't cared for or seen very much so i don't know much about them but for the most part they look like loisellies till there older

hope this helps you choose which parachromis you wan't

out of those bunch probably mota's, though i have serious doubts on if they'll be able to hold there own against a butti. how big is yours? because i have known peoples butti's to be notorious in killing tankmates.
