Hi.

We have a doubt in the identification of these cichlids purchased at a fish store in Puerto Rico.

Hi.

Thank you very much for your answers.

I want to ask what are the differences between the two species, so I can identify them in the future.

Thanks in advance,

Rafael.

A. Siquia are more like convicts, but have orange, red or yellow on their sides. They are larger then HRPs too. They are a totally different sp. then HRPs.
