Sometimes You Can't Help It (C. Regani)

[Dread]

Picked up two a couple days ago.. loved them, thought it was a m/f pair. Turned out to be 2 females, the spot on the "male" isn't easily seen, and I had to look very closely for a day or so to notice it. So, today, I took the hour drive back, and picked up another female, and a proven male. Tadaaa!

Love these guys already. Great little fish, and I suggest them to anyone who wants something rarer and fun. These are the Rio Tapajo strain, and keep the barring on their back for their life span.

[Dread]

Yep, dwarf Pikes.

How big do they get and how much will one run me.

 

[Dread]

Around here, these were $25 for a pair, $15 each. Largest one I saw was 6.5''

those are pretty cool, how do they act in groups like this?

 

[Dread]

Not bad so far. The male and one female just got dumped in today, and they're already hanging out with the original two females. They kind of just roam around in a group near the bottom, weaving between plants and leaf litter.

S'more. Maybe some reposts, but I don't think too many.

Nothing too special, I'm far from a Photographer. But here goes!

While I'm at it, some suspected Apistogramma sp. 'Pebas'. Not looking for an ID, but if anyone knows off the top of their head for sure, let me know.

Great pickups..

They're are pricks to other cichlids.. had a male I gave to neoprodigy on crenicichla day.. think it was probably a feeder..
