Awesome update! I love it..nice rays and cichla! Are the azuls from 2 diff. batches? Did you get any of the super blue's from Wes a while back?

yes the azuls are from 2 separate batches. 2 eat pellets and one doesnt. i think thats why they may look so different.

i got 2 from a fellow mfk'er when they were about 5 inches and one from shark aquarium.

Ya my azuls are a pain....they only want market shrimp of fish filets. I stuff pellets in w/ them though. But it seems most azuls all look the same for the most part...even from different locations.

agreed, all azuls look the same. my two big ones are pigs and will eat literally hundreds of massivore pellets in a sitting.

my orino is my favorite of all my fish. i wish i had a school of them. im growing out some kelberi but what i really want to get my hands on are xingus, intermedia, fogos, and more orinos. my next tank is going to be a true monster and is going to be LOADED with all different kinds of cichla!

I 100% agree. That Orino is the most amazing I have seen on this site in years. Where did you get him? I know why he is your favorite!! :drool:
