Nice fish.. Don't know a lot about these. I do know when I first got into cichlids, I had a few. A flameback, and a hap 44. Mean little fellows.

Lol, are you serious? I can find the common haplochromis flamebacks way more easier. I can never find the kyoga flamebacks. Maybe it's just you.....


LOL...Just me:ROFL: I just started getting into Vics a few months ago. I was saying what the other guy told me.

I was going to say, the kyoga flamebacks are very hard to find, everyone has the haplochromis flamebacks. I was lucky enough to find another source for kyoga flamebacks through other forums.

Oh I see. Well if you get a good show quality male I got dibs on it.:naughty:

They will, I hope so. :D The guy has plenty of 1.5" males and told me he might have a couple 3" males as well. He's going to check tomorrow and see at his fish facility if he has any 3" ones. If he does have any 3" inch males I am going to grab a couple with some females. :headbang2 I'm praying that he has some 3" males. :) I'll keep you updated.
 
That would be awesome!!!! Goodluck.
