Hello there!

Anybody can identify those called Wild Pelvicachromis, bought in a LFS?

Thank you!

Hélène

Moliwe. They certainly look like the ones I had anyway.

Hi,

yes it is a nice pair of one of the two known P. teaniatius 'Moliwe' variants. Both come from the Moliwe region in Cameroon.

Take care and breed them well, not to many have this variant anymore. I brought plenty back in the 1980s but do not see them around much anymore.

Best regards from a collector,

Wow wow! Heiko Bleher! :D Unfortunatly Heiko, those "moliwe" are not mine, they belong to a friend. I'm glad to say that they reproduced and they are good parents with their fries. Do I have to say that I'll get some of those little beauties!

Meanwhile, I'm taking good care of those: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sIFt6ALUfBA :lol:

Thank you for taking the time to answer Heiko. ;
