This is not a Shakespeare quote. It's an announcement for the arrival of many a hobbyists' "dream cichlid species".
For the first time in US trade, all sizes of wild collected ex 'Cichlasoma' ornatus (or cf. ornatus if you will as they come from the Rio San Juan of Colombia) are now available for your cichlid hobby/addiction pleasure.
Please see photos taken below for representation of each size I have to offer. This very rarely encountered species has never been documented as seen below in various sizes and stages of maturity.
I will post a current stock list on a separate thread to follow.
These babies could be called 'cute' if they had fur or big ears or something...
Some additional new arrivals include ex 'Cichlasoma' atromaculatus, Caquetaia myersi, Astronotus sp. 'Orinoco oscar', Crenicichla sp. 'Atabapo ll', Cr. sp. 'Inirida, Cr. lenticulata, Hoplarchus psittacus, Leporacanthicus 'vampire pleco', and more.
The below photo of an adult C. myersi appears as a reference so you can see what an adult looks like.
I took this this morning also. It's one of the jumbo 'royal water melon plecos' that I have on hand.
