What's the name

Postby Esben » Fri Nov 04, 2005 4:08 pm

I was taking some photos of this Victorian cichlid at ZooZajac in Germany yesterday, but I didn't see the name. Can anybody help me?

As it is not a described species it seems to early (in my point of view) to assigne it to a genus, specialy in the case of victorian cichlids, because the definition of many genus is not clear. But, as you write it, some authors include it in Paralabidochromis.
