New Rainbow Cichlids
« on: September 17, 2012, 01:01:21 PM »
I was excited to get some Herotilapia Multispinosa (or whatever they're classified as right now)/Rainbow Cichlids from Fantastic Fins recently.  Thought I'd post a few pictures of the two pair I picked up.  They were apparently really common a few years ago and now are hard to find, so I was glad it only took about two months to find some local to me. 

All four together:



Dominant pair:



One alone:



The females are showing their breeding tubes, and lots of color changes/chasing, plus some hiding in the cave(s), so might be fry soon, hopefully.

Ha, I just noticed the rainbow behind them. Is that on the background/backpane or not?
