as previously stated they arnt in the best of shape yet... and colour and shape wise they have a long way to come before they truely start to resemble their full visual potential...

BUT as you can see they are an absolutly gorgeous fish!!!!

Pre orders already... Ahaha will keep you posted. They are almost breeding size now...and already got a nice angry dominant male and what looks like 2-3 girls. I reckon end of may to mid June before they spawn

[Blakey]

Actually just watching them now it looks like a I have a little trio forming... Digging and what not together around a shelly cavey. Only problem is the judlichromis are quite big and are actively breeding so for the time being until the brIchardi add on a bit of size I think the juldis will rule the roost.
I will see how things go...

they look nice mate

cheers

Nice brichardi, actually have some colour on them.

[Blakey]

Yeh a bit of colour it should get a lot better... As I said the remind me a bit of nigripinnis... Can't wait till they are adu
Ts and those gold fins and trailing right back.

Majestics is doing me 2.2kg NLS optimum freshwater flakes for $70 as a good gesture for their stuff up... I asked for those specific flakes... But is that a good price?

[sandgroper]

So let me see if i've got this right, you have to pay them a further $70 for their stuff up. Sounds like a scam to me cheers steve.

Yeh they have grown up real nice.. They are big fat buggers. I seen a couple of little fry sneaking around too... Amazes me how quickly their fry show adult shape and colour.
