Yeah she is in her own tank now. All I did was add alittle extra salt to the water. All the other demasoni in the tank she came out of seem totally fine. Just gonna watch her and hope for the best.

At first I thought she might be holding because she had not ate in about 5 days. I moved her from main tank to a 10 gallon and that's when I notice the white stuff coming off her gill plate. At first it wasn't bad looked like maybe she had a injury from scratching a rock or something but it has...

Yeah and I know better then that to. I have just been dealing with the guy for a couple years now and made the mistake of trusting him on a species I was not familiar with. Lesson learned at least socolofi are pretty cool to just not as rare. And even if the demasoni are not f1 demasoni alway...

Sad part is I also bought some f1 demasoni from him at the same time which now I am doubting that they are truly f1

Yeah the more I research the more I'm starting to realize that. I guess that's what I get for not doing my research first.

They were 10$ a piece. I bought them from a local store that breeds and sales mainly mbuna and peacocks. He ordered them from Cichlid Exchange. Would be pretty disappointed if that's not what they are because I deal with the guy alot would hate to think he was just blowing smoke. They do look a...

Just looking for a second opinion on these guys. I bought them as F1 cynotilapia chinyankwazi but I'm not finding to many pictures online of young ones to compare to. They few pictures I have found they don't seem to be as blue as mine. They are around 3/4 inch right now.

Here's a pic

Credit card works good for the easy stuff. For the tougher stuff u can get scratch free sponges at the grocery store. They have green ones and blue ones. The guy who told me about them said the green ones still leave little scratches but the blue ones work good. Why? I don't know but I have used...

My dominant male is bright like your pic convict but with the sub dominant one its hard to even tell there the same species. Only every great once in awhile when he decide to challenge the throne does he color up.

I ended up getting rid of one of the males because he was terrorizing everyone else in the tank. I did end up finding one female locally but am going to have to order some more at some point because you just don't ever seem them around here

Made the same mistake when I bought mine 3 males no females
