jvision Posted June 14, 2015 Report Share Posted June 14, 2015 It's possible that someone is calling an Honduran Red Point cichlid an electric blue convict - that's basically what they look like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperGuppyGirl Posted June 14, 2015 Report Share Posted June 14, 2015 When I had cryptoheroes nannoluteas (yellow convicts) I was reading up on honduran red points as well and apparently they can cross with viable off spring from regular convicts. Which is what stopped me from trying to get HRP as most offered in lfs tend to be a hybrid. So these possibly could be HRP x Con, which would explain the color and the oddity of the adult fish.
