show off your Archocentrus sajica

[jgentry]

Rapps sold them for a bit a while back too. Maybe he'll see this thread and can post if he knows anything about them.



I agree...looks to be a female due to coloration but I will say she is a very bulky female. She looks awesome.

And to Mad About Cichlids, that male was stunning. Never seen trailers that nice on one before and the coloration is awesome. So sorry to hear you lost him.



That's going to be a lot of fish for a 90 gallon. I think I'd maybe add a pair of sajica along with the 2 chocolates and call it a day. Maybe add a school of dithers but no other big cichlids. But then again chocolates and severums are pretty peaceful usually so you could try but you'll have to do a lot of water changes as they reach adulthood.

It must have been several years ago then. I can't remember ever seeing them on his list. Maybe I missed them though.

Thanks for all the great info, guys. That is stuff you just cannot find out elsewhere, unless you read through about 20 websites, and then you still don't know if the information is correct.

I may try a Severum first and see how that goes, and then try a T-bar if the Severum works out. I am looking to keep each particular fish species as males also (no mating pairs), which may be a problem as I believe males tend to be more aggressive than most female fish. And the fact that my Chocolate is already 8" and it will be hard to find a decent grown T-bar 4-5" already.

Regardless, thanks for introducing me to and peaking my interest in this fish. Have a great turkey-day, guys. I'll leave you with a beauty I found on another website-

If my handicapped convict passes away I'm seriously going to look into finding a male sajica to raise. They are so beautiful...
