Vieja/Paranettroplus Regani

[koltsixx]

Regani/Regans Cichlid about 8-9 inches. I've had other Vieja's/ExViejas such as Synspilum, Zonatus and Hartwegi and in my opinion this guys the best looking I've had so far.

Thanks, glad I was able to share something new to you. I'm a fan of the fine red spots and they have this metallic sheen to their scales as well that I really like.

Yours is awesome. Really beautiful fish. I have 4 that are about 3-4 inches, they are a bluish/gray. What size do they color up?

Thanks man, I really like him but man is he timid; he's getting bossed around by a 5 inch Red Sev. Coloring up depends on the fish and their dominance but most color up IME between 4-6 inches. What else do you have in the tank with them, and how bout sharing some pics of your little guys.

Mine are in a tank with a BUNCH a fish. 2 Zonztus 6-8 inch. Synspilum 8 inches. 4 Argentea 3-5 inch. A Fenestratus 5 inch. Breidohri 6 inch. It's very crowded. Lemme go sit and try to get a pic with my phone....

What kinda camera did you take the picture of yours with? A real camera or a phone? I have an iPhone 5, and it takes pretty bad pictures.

I'm surprised your able to keep them together without a problem. My Zonatus, Hartwegi and Synspilum wouldn't tolerate being in the same tank for long but mine where all about 10 inches or so. I've always wanted Breidohri but can never find them at a decent size, I'm always seeing fry-1-1.5 inch at most.

Nice pic for a cell but isn't that a Argentea?

I used a real camera for the pic and vid in the first post. I used a DSLR Canon EOS Rebel T1i.
