Mazimbwe Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 Looks like assorted Zebras to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mbuna Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 With the amount of egg spots on both the dorsal and anal fin aswell as the head shape, i would say the first fish is almost definetly a Metriaclima estherae male. The second looks like a greyshaki male. Having said that, it is not a good idea to breed these fish if you are not certain on their background. hth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mezzacam Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 Yeah IMO definately not Lombardoi.. i think it was the 2nd last one reminds me of a acei... just the colours. lol. But not a lombardoi.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mazimbwe Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 sus4 & sus5 may look a little like greshakei but I think they are more likely to be BBRT_X_greshakei than the genuine Greshakei...too much baring and too much red in the caudal-fin, IMO. They are not lombardoi tho. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anchar Posted September 10, 2004 Share Posted September 10, 2004 Hi Kram, 1, 2 and 3 look a little like a male M. estherae, however there are too many egg spots in the dorsal I think to be pure. Nos. 4 and 5 appear to be P. greshekei...Either way neither are P. lombardoi. merjo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anita_ozfish Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 definitely not lombardoi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mezzacam Posted September 11, 2004 Share Posted September 11, 2004 Well i think the jury has spoken. They definately aren't Lombardoi. Still, the bottom 2 shots are a nice looking fish IMO, Would be nice for a display tank. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kram Posted September 11, 2004 Author Share Posted September 11, 2004 Thanks for everyones inputs. I have to agree with Mezzacam, the fish in the last 2 snot are a great looking fish ( it looks even better when it is trying to impress some females ).
