This one is for the seasoned Cichla Junkies IMO! Even though I know which ones they are, I can't tell the difference… But it is true. THis picture is all Wild Caught Ipatinga Kelberi (I know this to be true because I imported them myself) EXCEPT 2 of the Cichla. They are Kelberi Bahia. So the puzzle is which 2 are Bahia Kelberi? On a side note, these 2 Bahia were sold to me here in the US as Wild Caught but many said they were nice but not wild caught….So I cannot say for sure Wild Caught or not...

Not sure bud....Are those eating pellets yet?
If I could only catch up on stuff around the house...or when I do I'll be gettn at ya.
ANy luck finding true wc Xingu on your vacation?
Feel free to pm me ;)
 
No I got nothing done Hobby wise during this trip to Brazil… But I have given my new contacts serious talks about finding contacts to pursue any & all types of cichla next rainy season! I just sat around on the beach for 10 days straight! These guys are still mostly live & slowly taking krill, no pellets yet! My Bahia Pinima eat anything & everything. They are an awesome group!
 
I am definitely not seasoned in fact more like new but I want to make a guess just for fun. I guess 3rd one from the right and the one in the middle closest to the bottom of the tank?

Very awesome looking group too by the way!
