vieja

Once I've relocated all my pacu from my 400 gallon pond, I'm considering buying a redhead cichlid or an Argentea. The problem is, I currently have a jaguar cichlid and green terror in there. GT is 10-11in, jag is 12in. The jag isn't particularly aggressive, but the GT took down a 12in nile...

Have a 8" to 10" Vieja Black Belt Cichlid for sale. I think it's a male but not sure. Nice fish but not fitting in my tank. Pick up only.

I just picked up my first zonatus it’s about 6 inches. Do these color up as they grow? Mine looks dull. Can you share pictures of yours?

Hi. I have these two black belts with me for about 3 months now. Was wandering what the sex of these two guys are. They have been digging the substrate a lot, so was wondering if they are a breeding pair. Any help would be much appreciated

I recently got a vieja hybrid from my friend. And imo they are one of the prettiest fish one can have . I've seen a lot of threads on different types of VIEJAS here on MFK. But very few have pictures of fish or a complete shot of the tank. I wonder if all MFK people keeping VIEJAS could post...

I heard people mention "Rainbow Kings" before I understand that they are a hybrid and I think they have a lot of vieja in them but I don't know anything else. Does anyone know anything about them?

I have 2 regani that I need to rehome. They are around 4-5”. Very nice fish and have only been eating NLS. Must pick up .

So I was at my local shop yesterday and I saw a tank of what looks like really washed out Viejas. I thought they were some sort of mutts so I asked the guy to show me the list and it said paraneetroplus maculicauda. They were super drab I'd almost say pure white, there were a few that had a few...

Hey everyone, My Vieja Guttulatus and Vieja Hartwegi recently started to breed after they hit about two years old. One batch of fry is about two and a half months old now, and I've been finding dead ones each morning. Sometimes I will find two or three, and sometimes I will wake up to ten dead...

Hey guys been a long time reader but just signed up. Reading a lot about sexing the Vieja. Seems like the fish are making and clearing areas to lay eggs but both seem Male. There's a lot of discussion between correct species between vieja as well and would just like to clear some questions up.

My LFS has a tankful of 4cm individuals. Couldn't find much info on this fish and wanted to know more before potentially buying one, was wondering on the: 1. Potential max size 2. Minimum tank size 3. Diet 4. General aggression levels 5. Possible tank mates (like bichirs or other cichlids) 6...

Picked these up as vieja argentea at the 1 inch size from my LFS. Quickly realized they werent argentea when i noticed the red tint on the tails. Theyre about 4 inches now. Im thinking hartwegi? Im not sure since ive only kept viejas once! First 3 pics are the same fish. Last 2 pics are...

Recently, I caught this one during my fishing trip. I am interested to know the exact species. I believe this is the correct section to ask

Recently, I got this cichlid on a small lure. I guess it belongs to the genus Vieja. Does anyone know the exact species? Thanks
