discusdude Posted December 11, 2004 Share Posted December 11, 2004 Whoa, nice fish! I love the colours and he has a really big hump, some dont get them that big anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the cichlid kid Posted December 12, 2004 Author Share Posted December 12, 2004 thanks for the comment Beau. P.S. looking for a suitable female (vibrant orange in colour) to breed him with in an attempt to produce bright orange big humped babies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mezzacam Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 HOLY GOLLY GOSH! That has to be the biggest damn hump i've ever seen! Amazing! Is that what full grown specimens are really meant to look like in real life? Or if that hump bred to be that large? Still. Amazing! Cameron.

Lepperfish Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Is that normal? LOL.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the cichlid kid Posted December 12, 2004 Author Share Posted December 12, 2004 yes, thats what mature males are supposed to look like although i think he's a little more equipped than most , but the colour and nuchal humps of devils around the traps seems to be decreasing thats what i want to get a brightly coloured female and hopefully produce fry that will look very similar.

Teamsherman Posted December 12, 2004 Share Posted December 12, 2004 Shame your in QLD, i have a mature flawless (probably the nicest one around) female Devil that has laid about 4 phantom egg batches. I'll try and get a nice pic up tonight just to teaze you!! Hope you can find one up your way, ive had trouble finding a nice enough male to put with my female, she's too nice i dont want to breed her with any old devil. Cheers, Alan.

r.d.m Posted December 15, 2004 Share Posted December 15, 2004 imo you should look for a red/white female as this strain is getting rare - nice fish by the way, does he greet you when you come home? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the cichlid kid Posted December 15, 2004 Author Share Posted December 15, 2004 yeah hes quite a friendly sole, races to whatever side of the tank I am at, but he does get nasty when I move his stuff, he has made me bleed quite a few times Beau.
