Lets see those Hypsophrys Nicaraguensis (Nicaragua Cichlid)

Not to steal from Bill's thunder, as he definitely has a beautiful pair, but check a few of these pics out. Just a few that a quick Google image search brought up (not my pics... unfortunately!)









There really are some amazing looking specimens out there!

Yowsa!

 

[Stratoquarius]

wow, we definately have a lot to look forward too!

 

[cjdesmit]

Hah, hopefully! The 2nd to last pic of that male is insane...

 

[Stratoquarius]

he has a very interesting pattern too, hes the only one I've seen with that black patch up there near the dorsal.

I've never seen that either. Beautiful nics. I love the Costa Rican nic W/ a lot of blue on their heads.

Cichlidfish, any chance you could post the difference in location morphs for the nic species?

The difference isn't huge, CRs seem to have more blue on their face.

 

[Stratoquarius]

so super yellow bodies and super blue faces is costa ricans, so what about Nicaraguan morph
??

 

[cichlidfish]

Mine would be a typical nic and not a CR, because she has more brown/green in the face. I don't know much about the gold morph and where they are found.
