Yes seems to, on this one in particular. It's the largest most dominant, and my favourite. I'm 99% sure it's a male.Does that black come and go?
Good looking fish indeed. Is that black common in larger cichlids? I have a maybe 2”-2.5” red devil that has the same black on him.Yes seems to, on this one in particular. It's the largest most dominant, and my favourite. I'm 99% sure it's a male.
Its all part of the peeling process. Most red Devils will lose all the black as they mature. You do get the odd adult with black, but not that many.Good looking fish indeed. Is that black common in larger cichlids? I have a maybe 2”-2.5” red devil that has the same black on him.
Thank you. I'm really enjoying growing these out.Lookin good, Andy!
