Was wondering if any of the guys or gals have seen some dwarf cichlids at a LFS in the Jhb or Pta area. What I am after are the more uncommon species, and not Ramirezi.
Went to 6 of them on sunday in the northern and east of pta .
Havent seen any.
Will keep a lookout though.
PM me your nr. so that i can contact you as soon as i see any.
I and a friend of mine breed South American Dwarfs. I have spawns of Sunburst Cockatoos, Double Red Cockatoos and Apistogramma Viejita at the moment. Just growing them out a bit. I also have some Apistogramma Hongsloi which I'm hoping will pair up soon.
What are you looking for specifically?
Like I said .....
Not TOO many around
NOT TOO easy to breed
NOT TOO big, so easily accommodated
NOT COMMONLY FOUND..THAT part alone is challenging, and FUN to FIND some!
Contact slagter:p
(Also Eskimo and veegal/zafgak have bred some Apistogramma pairs they got from me. Dunno if they raised any fry? )
also keep your eyes out for some nice stuff every month or so, as time, space (AND BUDGET) allows
check in on TheWaterZoo, in the Sponsors Forum, or drop me a pm for whatever species you'd be serious 'bout getting
Don't forget the high:blink1: quality , locally bred fish also now reaching marketable size.
The problems are mostly overcome if you start with awesome fish from a great source:bigsmile:

Altum - the Apisto's are looking GREAT - the spawn did not get past egg stage and were eaten - we are separating the pairs so should have some Apisto's soon...
