  • When I was at the Ohio cichlid Association extravaganza I was fortunate enough to pick up these beautiful fish. Paratilapia bleekeri is larger then the Paratilapia polleni, Madagascars finest cichlids from Maralambo. Enjoy these beautiful juveniles from the Nosivolo river.

      That's a good question I'm thinking there not I got them from the OCA Extravaganza. Not the cares program. They are endangered in the wild I think there's a pretty good population in the hobby.

    Nice... just picked up 11 1-2" of them. Looking to breed them this time around. I had 8 of them a year or so ago. Have one male left. About 9" right now. I bought small spotted. Not the rare large spot. Last batch I got was in 2+" range and were black from store. These new guys are still grey..
