REALM OF THE UMBEE
Whats Up MFK fam! Things have been getting crazy over here at the UMBEEKING'Z Lair :) My Gorillus are on a rampage and they have been keeping me busy with watching there progress and development. I must say these guys are very Impressive fish. Im having fun keeping them and experiencing the UMBEE in a different shade:) Out of the two populations of Gorillus I've collected, the Gorillus Blue variant in my opinion is the most brilliant. With its black base scales overlay ed with an impressive electric blue color and burgundy red freckles just makes a UMBEE KEEPER never want to leave the fish room :) Not to mention personality for days and a appetite that will match that or out do Trimaculatus or Flowerhorn.... in other words These Apes can EAT!!!! :) My Keeper male "Hellscream," is now a solid 8inches and his adult coloration is near completion. Already sporting that black base with that amazing blue this boy is already a splitting image of his father. Currently he is being housed in a 125 gallon tank with a potential mate divided in there with him. Thats right F2 Gorillus blues coming soon!!!!!! His diet consist of Ken's Fish large cichlid pellets, cichlid excell, NLS large cichlid pellets,krill, fresh market shrimp and tilapia and whatever insects I can find around the house:) Well here are some updated pictures of "Hellscream." What do you guys think? Also if anyone is interested in obtaining a Gorillus Blue UMBEE, send me a PM and we can me it happen:) Thanks again, UMBEE POWERRRRRR!!!!!!

Looking good! His color is really starting to come out. Keep us posted with updates and they are some great looking fish that you collected.

They got lots of color man! Keep up the good work!

Thanks Fellas! its much appreciated :) UMBEES remind me of the UGLY DUCKLING story, when young there ugly and don't have much color but as they mature, Surprise they can turn into the most striking Cichlid you have ever seen. Here are a couple from then to know pictures. Plus a video I made of him..... check it out!

He truly is amazing and I can't wait for my male g. Blues to shine like him! How are the parents doing? I hear that you may not sell fry off them for a while is that because you aren't breeding them? Anyway take care brother!
