Chopperman Posted September 17, 2007 Report Share Posted September 17, 2007 (edited) I have a cichlid that i dont know what it is. Surprisingly everytime I turn the light on the aquarium he shoots right out and shows himself off, but as soon as theres a camera in my hand he gets shy. I assume hes a male because when I rescued the tank there where 2 others, less brilliant in colors and a bit smaller. and the person left to take care of them said there was occasionally fry swimming around. The 2 ended up dying in shock from clean water. But he survived. heres some hurtin pictures and if anyone can make heads or tails of it and be able to make a match I would be greatly appreciated. thanks Edited September 17, 2007 by Chopperman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
