    A Few New Guys

    I received a few new wilds about a week age and they have settled in nicely. I receive a solid Cuipeua, a semi-royal Cuipeua and two blue Nhamundá Heckels.

        I would be thrilled to have a wild blue like that last one. I know just how I would breed it.

          I am glad somebody got some from Rodrigo he is a really nice guy to deal with. I spent a lot of money with his L046's and that's why I recommended him. We should try to get him to be a sponsor unless you did that already. I had a feeling these were from him congrats.

              That last one is a wild Heckel and if it is a male. he will breed with anything. A wild Heckel pairing in captivity is a very rare thing. Give me your thoughts on breeding this one Liz? I'm curious.

                          Yes I believe he is the owner and he just texted me and he is going to join Simply and the hanked me for letting him know. Hopefully he will become a sponsor. He has a big selection of fresh water fish and he is building his web site but for now he is on FB.

                            I thought that might be the case. Would make an interesting pairing

                              Depends on your definition of royal. Some want the striations to go across the whole body without breaks. I like the broken striations personally.
