    WoW, Beautiful bud.
    I’m also a huge fan of this species.

    Working on a small setup so I can keep them again.

    Wow, I'm overwhelmed! Thank you all very much for your kind words! They're doing well for sure and I have plenty more youngsters in other holding tanks. With a mono-culture their lovely fins grow out fully and to me Fairies are one of the most beautiful fishes around, but I may be a little baised! Lol! Thanks again everyone! X!

    Stone aquatics knows their stuff about Lake Tanganyika Cichlids. Can always contact them as well. Certain Stores might also keep these, but haven't seen any in a while.
