you can see my pseudotropeheus "zebra" and behind that is my pseudotropheus "Hongii" red top. every one knows a yellow lab when they see one. all of the babies are hybrid. a cross between a red empress and a sunshine peacock. no two fish look alike from the entire brood. i had some OB coloration, some red empress looking fish, and some blue faced yellow bodied fish. some all blue even. i thought i would wind up giving them away or flushing them, but they turned out nice after 8 months growout. all the other fish in the tank have been there for over a year now.
 
nice tank!
 
you can really see the difference between the babies by the one in the bottom. there are some like him but yellow. some look like female peacocks, some are bright blue. i separated the dominant ones so they would color up.
