Anybody working with Demasoni or Pseudo. Blue Dolphin?

[Hobbiest]

I have seen juvenilles at the lfs so I know some people are keeping them. I have seen few juvenilles available at auctions though. On the forum I saw only one recent post of a member who had juvenilles. Just wondering if anyone is working with Demasoni at present.

Also I have not seen Pseudotropheus Blue Dolphin at recent auctions or for sale of this forum. Is anybody working with Pseudo. Blue Dolphin?

I have a colony of juveniles that I am growing out

I bought 5 at the auction. I think they need some mates.

I have kept and bred African cichlids for 35 years...never heard of a pseudo. blue dolphin...do you mean cyrtocara moori...aka Malawi Blue dolphin?

[Hobbiest]

No sir. If you Google Pseudotropheus Blue Dolphin Manda you will see them. Or Metriaclima.

Those Ps. Blue Dolphins were pretty popular when they first entered the hobby. I had a group early on before the prices rose, but mine ended up being 7m/2f or something like that. They seemed to be popular for 2-3 years and since then interest dropped off. I thought that they were nicer than demasoni and not quite as difficult to keep from killing one another.
