Cryptoheros Cutteri

I took some pics and a small video on my phone today (only thing I had in my classroom) of my classroom Cutteri.  I purchased them as a breeding pair, they laid eggs last week, but the male didn't fertilize as my students kept him preoccupied. He is slowing becoming more comfortable with a large audience.  I really enjoy these fish, but sometimes question whether or not they are true cutteri, as their colors aren't as vibrant as the googled pictures I have seen.  They both definitely colored up when they attempted to spawn though.  Here is the video, followed by a few pictures.  Not the best quality, but my IPhone did what it needed to do.

Man I love their eyes.

Those Cutteri look awesome Lloyd

I plan to hook up some members on here as soon as I get some viable fry. I haven't seen these around much, and when I saw those baby blues, I knew they had to me mine!

One of my favorites. I had a pair a few years back but due to some tank changes and stock moving, I ended up giving them away.   

Let me know when you have some babies, I would consider a nice little male to share the tank with Porkchop.

Will do!
