wetfish Posted September 14, 2004 Share Posted September 14, 2004 I was wondering which of the aulonocara sp is considered to be the best looking fish. In my opinion one of the best I have seen would be Aulonocara "stuartgranti maleri". I'm sure there are people out there with opinions that differ, I would like to know other peoples thoughts on this species and what they consider to be the best or favourite.

Ducksta Posted September 14, 2004 Share Posted September 14, 2004 Of the few varieties I have come across including the wild caughts Nigel had, the heuseri are clearly the stand-out for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Serial-Cichlid Posted September 14, 2004 Share Posted September 14, 2004 There are alot of good looking peacocks out there but I can't go past the Midnight Peacock from Likoma Island. So I'm with Ducksta, the hueseri are my favourites. Not really, even the tank reared heuseri are my preferred varient. Do you remember where you saw the tank bred ones? I looked long and hard for decent ones before giving up my search and was lucky enough that Nigel brought some in. Cheers Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
