Sounds like a colour morph or something, I'd stay away from them.

I might grow one out just to see what the heck it really is.
They looked pretty neat though.
If I get one I'll post pics.

Some people just don't like Africans, and this is the CA/SA section.

Had Africans before.
If I get them again, they'll go in my 55 that held Africans before.
Thank you for the suggestion, but I posted in CA/SA because I want to do a CA/SA tank....

You might see me in the African cichlid section later this year though.
:D

I call this thread over...
Gotta good idea of what to stock from Japes.

Just wondering though, would a True parrot be alright in 55G, or would 18'' width be better?
Just wondering cause I was thinking of getting a cheap 55G of craigslist and getting a bunch of smaller polypterus species and IMO a True parrot would look awesome with the polys.

I'd for the 18" wide for sure. 12"(? or are they 10") fish in a 15" wide tank is a little cramped.

Alright cool.
Juat trying to think of something cool yeat would work well with the polys if I do infact go for a 55G-75G
