Very nice fish!
12 bucks for that size fish is a pretty good deal. They tend to be priced proportionally to their size since they are reportedly hard to keep.
Yeah, after i posted my requests to you a friend found a really great store and saw these in there, knowing i wanted one and i just couldnt pass it up. No guarantee on it though because they are so hard to find (well for the time being) but they are becoming more and more popular and the best thing about them is that for the most part they are captive bred.

from the link...
like guppies that have been selective breed for their colors not man altered. i think its a natural color morph that been selective bred for the color.

lol ok just trying to make sure we are all on the same page lol.... i dont keep those types of fish so my knowledge is limited on them. for me natural means the same as from the wild. there are a ton of fish that been selective breed and dont look much like they would if you got wild ones.

yeah, I tried opening about 2 dozen of those blue glo-sticks you see at Halloween, the fish were not impressed

Chad, once you figure out whether thats a male or female, you should get the opposite, hope they pair, and make lots of money... assuming they breed? I know about as much about SA/CA cichlids as I do about planets that have not been discovered yet
