Funny fish. In nature blue is the norm (hence the name - Labidochromis caeruleus) but in the aquarium trade it's the yellow form you commonly see.

Actually that's partly true, as there are no blue labs, only a morph with blue fins, like the white nkata bay labs with blue fins and yellow kakusa labs with a blue dorsal (is how it's got its latin name).
Nice looking fish DISCIPLE, we get the nkata bay labs in our lfs from time to time.

The price varies from shipment to shipment, last time I've seen them they were $7 for 1" juvies.
