saudukar Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 Well you could help us out a little. Is it a cichlid? What lake/river/location is it from? Is it some other tropical? It is a peacock (Aulonocara)? Are you drunk? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ged Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 If you have a look at the properties of the image it tells you that it is Pundamilia nyererei. Forgive them for the spelling mistake. "http:// ww.bigskycichlids.com/images/Pneyieri.jpg" Greg Steeves wrote a fantastic article which can be found in the Cichlid Room Companion. Pundamilia nyererei The last photo that MIK20B posted was taken by Greg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ged Posted April 3, 2006 Share Posted April 3, 2006 It is not one that I have ever heard. I'll send an email to Greg and ask him if he has heard them being referred to as Tequila Sunrise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ged Posted April 4, 2006 Share Posted April 4, 2006 This was his response. I've seen some hybrids that have been given other names like Sunshine Nyererei and the like. Can't say I've heard the Tequila one before though. MIK20B can tell me where you heard the term as it my help. If you rather send me a PM that will be fine.
