    The professor doesn't have any, says they're one of the hardest fish to keep. And he has bred wild discus and dicrossus cichlids..

    I am also looking for scalare angels. Best quality I can get of course but would like it to be the wild colours. I don't fancy the koi angels and the sunsets and stuff. I like wild colours

    They'll be from different collection points in different rivers or parts of a river system, so the morphology may be different. The same species can vary from place to place :)

    It may just be slightly different looks but they are the same species. I think they are from different river systems. I was looking this up the other day but either way they get nice and big and super spectacular!

    Hi Dale
    I have some Blue Angels (pterophyllum scalare) that have successfully bred and the young are currently about 5cm from fin tip to tip.
    I don't have any good photos of the juvis yet but will be sure to post some soon.
    Here are the parents:
