Standards - From Slink
Albino - From a random

As for prices, slink can tell you if he has any left.
And the albinos, I was sworn to secrecy. Sorry... I got them at a REALLY GOOD PRICE.
I have seen them at Vebas. I think they were about $25-$35 each. A good price considering 4yrs ago I was selling them at midland at $95 each :o

Some more from today.

 

Aulonocara maulana

10478935_10152395928743565_3550276437234

 

Aristochromis christyi, These guys are really putting some size on since being in the 6x2x2. Awesome fish.

10392298_10152395928973565_4647849515666

 

Metriaclima pulpican, Such an agro little bugger. But such good color. Amazing color changes in seconds. And so bloody fast. Hard to get a good shot of him.

10363849_10152395928888565_8390152247290


Labidochromis caeruleus - I picked these up yesterday, Already 3 mouthfuls.
Thanks heaps to Slink.

Otopharnyx lithobates - I hvae two colonies of these on the go now.
Stunning colors and starting to get some fry from both colonies.
This is the smaller colony. The male certainly gives the M.pulpicans a run for his money.

This is the bigger colony.  These guys are spawning non stop.
