WTB: chicagoland area- geo + severum

[tksniff062]

Hi everyone!


I am interested in buying some geo red humps or RH/OH tapajos and also looking for gold severums. If anybody has any to sell, or if you know of a lfs or breeder that has them I would love to know. I live in the far west suburbs of chicago. I've started looking at some lfs and have only found green severums and other types of geos....


Thanks for your help!

If you want tapajos Geo's you dont want RED HUMPS, you want RED HEADS.

If u get a red humped geo, it is usually the Pelligrini(uglier looking to me),

if u get the red heads, u get the TAPAJOS RED HEADS, like what i have!

www.tangledupincichlids.com may have some for sale, I took a chance and ordered mine off aquabid, and they came 3 weeks late! I thought i got ripped off

I can get you some Tapajos, but they are in Schereville, IN.

Thanks for the quick response. I have sent an email to rapps, I'm just waiting for a response. I acuatlly like his pindare.


I looked on aquabid as well, but I am a little leary of ordering from there...I was hoping to find someone or a lfs around my area to eliminate shipping.


And to clear up any confusion, I actually like geo red humps (steindachneri). I am looking for either one, a group of steindachneri or group of tapajos (red or orange head).

I'm just trying to cut down on my fish
they've laid eggs haven't raised em yet

Technically there is no such thing as red head Tapajos. weidner has them categorized as Orange head Tapajos. and it is a orange not a red. however sometimes mine would show a hint of red but was 99.9% orange. i used to have 1000's of fry, i had so many i had to start feeding the fry to my Moba.

check out GCCA.net there is a guy selling F0 Orange head Tapajos on there. his name is Mike, good guy.

Thank you! I'll keep you in mind. I'm hoping to find something in the area first, then I'll consider doing the shipping thing I appreciate your help.

Thanks Joe! I did see that add on there before. I would like to find some a little smaller, and a little less pricey. I did save his info in case, I'm sure they are really nice fish. I'm just putting feelers out there, I've seen them sold for less.

I wish you still had some fry, your geos are gorgeous by the way
