Hey what's up? I know there are a few people on here that build/take care of aquariums. I been searching all local shops to find a cynotilapia afra cobu "orangeback cichlid" and everytime I bring up the name no one really knows what I'm talking about. Besides online I have yet to see one around. So my question is does anyone know of a good place that could get the fish? I've already checked animal jungle with no luck. Lmk if there r suggestions.

When I google the exact name u listed, this comes up: http://www.cichlidlovers.com/c-afra-cobue.JPG which looks like a cross between a electric blue cichlid and a bumblebee cichlid....idk if you'll have much luck gettn a hybrid like that in shops. My petsmart just got a bunch of bumblebees in. |

Green Terrors are gorgeous! As well as Jack Dempsey's, if your looking for awesome colorations. But yes Green Terrors are South American cichlids.

I have a Jack and a Green Terror together and they've never once tried to go after each other. They live pretty peacefully.

Well that's always a plus. Sometimes attitudes can be different in individual fish, its good yours are cool with each other. I've always been told that Oscars and JD's are what go together.

Re: Locating african cichlid
ive been eyeing the tank of Convicts at my pet store....ive held off becuase they're very young, and don't look too colorful...
the stripes are barely visible...and in google pics i usually see a hint of blue/purple. i dont see it yet I might pick one up. It's between that or a green terror. |
