Thanks. :)

The second fish should arrive on Wednesday, but I am not sure, I have not heard from Jose for a while.

Like Ron Howard said (;)), it is "Cichlasoma" beani. Although not the most attractive fish, it is said to be the most aggressive of all cichlids and is definitely one of the rarest in the hobby. Jeff Rapps says that the beani is the single most requested Central American cichlid, and he sold an adult male for $500 recently.
 
you do know if you get a male and female you are required to try and breed them and sell us the fry and give us an MFK discount or you will be banned
 
You only got TWO?! Dude, you should have at least squandered away three or four of them!! Shoot, sell a kidney or something! :ROFL:

Best of luck man, I hope you are able to get them up to full size!! They are spectacular cichlids!! :D High five for winning the bid on them! :)
 
awesome pick ups...

How does 10% off $200 sound? :grinno:

If I end up with a breeding pair, everyone on MFK and off gets fry real cheap. I care more about getting this fish back into the hobby than making a bunch of money. I already have beani, what else could I spend it on? :D
That said, I only have a 50% chance of getting a male and a female.

Haha, my parents were like, "You spent what on two little gray fish?!?!" :WHOA:

By the way, this little guy is doing awesome, he's more active and curious than most new fish I get, and he's already eating pellets! :headbang2:headbang2:headbang2
Thanks Nic. :)
