Title: Just ordered a new group of fish. :)
Post by: jcunningham0295 on April 22, 2013, 10:58:27 PM

Just ordered a new group of fish out of Germany through Valley Aquatics.  They should be here in around two weeks.  Ordered 11  (3 males and 8 females) Callochromis pleurospilus Kigoma at 2 to 2.5".  Super excited, can't wait to get them.   They will go right under my Callochromis Strappersii in their own 40 breeder.

Those look to be some beautiful fish.  Hope they arrive safe and sound.

Thanks, just added a group of gold occies with them as well.  Better stop now before I have a huge order coming in.

Good luck with the Callochromis, Josh.  I've seen this species only once in person and they are stunning.  I'm sure you'll enjoy them.  One trick to having them look their best is to get the lighting right.  Their coloration is subtle but when it's right, it's really, really nice!
