there is the link incase anybody wants to check it out. Who knows you may have something on the list.

I would love too see pics!

We can't have any of those species my way but good too hear people know WHAT they are keeping...maybe teach others...breed and replenish the native environment so aquarists can keep in the future without drastically reducing numbers!

Cheers!!!

Been bussy moving tanks so no pics yet. But look at the first pic in my sig that os the dom male of my lueta group.

Just. Curiouse why cant you have these speicies up your way?

Bylaws forbid..a lot of Non Native species do well in Canadian Waterways...careless people release these Non Native species into these Canadian waterways and it changes everything around...even non native turtles here you actually notice the decrease in fish do do this addition too the enviroment...and you notice within a couple years!

i see that explains why salt is so popular. i cant imagin affrican cichlids doing well up there but who knows

Nah...Africans do very poor in Canada for sure unless aquariums are heated

Now Africans let loose in Florida or the carolinas could be devastating!!!
