Nice looking fish! I'm not understanding if you're saying it's a Texas hybrid or not. Is it pure?

dont hate!! na na


hahaha.. man i always loved texas..but what i really want is the deep deep red one with kok of course.. but man even with money they are very hard to find the ones i want..

so maybe i should just try to make my own.. its a very long shot.. but with as many fish we got..if this is fertile ..we are bound to land on something ( i hope) with luck that is grinning

well they called these the daimond blue cichlids..

which i think this one isnt pure at all.. eventhough most of the siblings that were in the tank got more of the texas traits..this one i see different and liked due to the pearl patterns..

body does not look like a pure carpintis at all thumbs up

thanks for the question.. and to my knowledge i would go with texas hybrid..

let me show another pic of a wild caught texas.. i wonder if that thread is still there..
(remember i didnt say pure)

here is a pic of Herichthys sp. "Rio Cazones" ( blue cichlid), from The Rio Cazones river in Mexico. A common name of this fish is Turquoise Herichthys.

they are basically hybrids in the wild thumbs up

Cool fish you posted! Your fish has really thick looking pearls, I've never seen pearls that solid on a Green Texas before. And like you said, his body shape doesn't say Texas. Well, it's kind of shaped like my old carpinte

What? Why are you getting more fish? I thought you had space issues? Anyways, this fish is quite a beauty. I saw a pretty cheap 4-5" SRT, kinda pale though, at 405 tropical today. Around $60 I think.

That's a pretty fish... always like Texas breeds. I would try that out with a big headed female... preferably a faded one. The reason why I mention big headed female FH because the Texas cancel out kok potential as you most likely experienced already with your previous breeding projects. They do have some of the best pearls to transfer into a line. Faders are great because you get that white pearl. I would go with a dark red fader too to add color. GL to your new project!
