| Those are beautiful. If you have any available I would be interested in some of its babies. But I'm sure that list is long. |

| Would this be the same Person Jeff is buying his fries from? He hasn't responded to my text about going up to Seattle this Friday. Very nice Fesate, If and when I have room, I'll pick up some fries to raise, they are beautiful! as of right now I don't have any room.
Don't mind me asking what size tank are they in? |

| thanks everyone.
hobbyorobsession: ya they are for sale. right now they are only a half inch long. i dont kn ow if they would do well with others at the moment, but the female is acting like she is going to spawn again. lots of people talking about coming and getting some, but nobnody shows up, so if you want some, come get some!
sonny: ya jeff has texted me alot, last that i knew he was coming up with you, but then the texts just stopped. so i think you would know more then i. im sure there will be more when your ready. these two spawn like rabbits. if not from this group the next..
these two have been very different from other fish i have spawned. i dont havce alot of experience with spawning cichlids, but i have spawned jags, and convicts. and both of them waited until the babies were gone to spawn again. these two do not wait. and that has caught me off guard a little bit. been working on getting a grow out tank going, was supposed to get a 100 gal that i was going to turn into a grow out tank jsut for the festae, but apparently it got damaged so i am now looking again. i would prefer to wait a couple more months to sale these guys. but the looks of it is any day im going to go to work and find a pot full of eggs again.
two people bought some of the last batch, and they are all doing great and growing fast. so if anyone is interested in some, just come to the tattoo shop, alot of you already know were that is but i will leave address again..
thanks again for all the nice comments.

| I have 6 from his last spawn and they are a good inch long now and very healthy. I may be selling mine as I am moving in about a month and can't take the tank with me. |

| Louisville, Kentucky. Got an offer I could not refuse, plus my sister lives there and I will be closer to my family. I am going to be leaving Feb 15th. |

You're here all the time, you just never say anything (hard to believe!). |
