Brawler,
I have seen the sp 44's that LFD has on their site, including the video. The fish look correct, actually, they look really good. What bothers me about LFD is what they are selling as Kyoga Flamebacks......and they sure are NOT Kyogas. Looks like some "designer creation hybrid" or they have been pathetically line bred or "juiced"...take your pick.
The sp.44 is a beautiful Vic but they can become extremely aggressive, especially when they are no longer interested in mating.

Vdawgs,
Yes, that's a ZO alright, nice looking guy. There's a LFS close to my house....a real quality, just sell fish store, with the most beautiful ZO I have ever seen. I'm going to swing by there next week, and I will snap a shot of him for you to see. He's in the display only tank. They sell fish online too. The place is called Neptune Aquatics. The store is full of fish geeks and I have never seen so many spotless, beautifully maintained tanks ever!

To my knowledge, there isn't any difference. Lake Victoria flows into Lake Kyoga and then on to Albert. They are the same species...doubt anyone could prove they were fished out of Lake Kyoga?
