BaZ Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 They sound dodgy to me I've kept them for a couple of years and have only recently sold them. They never displayed any kind of barring that I saw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobaltcraig Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Could be female Lombardoi as well Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CThompson Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 Cobalts have no baring. If yours do, it would suggest that they are crosses. Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BaZ Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 And Craig (the Thompson one) is right, they are most likely a result of cross-breeding rather than in-breeding as your title suggests Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phatoscarlover Posted May 14, 2006 Share Posted May 14, 2006 If your Cobalt looks much diffrent to the pic below then what the other guys have said above is probably right Cheers Andy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodgy Posted May 15, 2006 Author Share Posted May 15, 2006 some of the more mature fish that i was given look almost identical to the pseudotropheus fainzilberi and some are a lot darker in colour but with the same markings they are a stunning fish to look at pity they seem to be crossed dodgy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dobbin4 Posted May 26, 2006 Share Posted May 26, 2006 Nice pic Andy, Your "dodgy " C/blues should have no barring as Craig says. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
