I have been looking to ID this fish for a very long time i have searched all over here it is: <edit photo added at the end>


I think its a red zebra female but am very unsure. I now have four fry running around in my 30 after i removed them from my 55 and either came from the electric yellow which I was told was male but have no confirmation of that but I dont have any other electric blues I have two of these a small one and a large one, So I have either had a cross breed or one of them is a male. But I dont know what they are so its hard to reaserch.

That was my bet I just was completly unable to get a picture of this particular colour morph... Goes to show what I knew about cichlids, I have 4 free swimming fry I found by pure accident. I was told I had been sold all males by the gent who sold them to me. He was wrong they are spawning again! WEll the male is doing a little shaky seasure dance so I am assuming at this point.

What a coincidence! Mine are spawning again too! Excepts its an albino cobalt red top zebra and a red one (that looks just like yours minus the egg spots)
