    My Great Fish

    When I got my 10 gallon, it was from a friend of my mom and had fish already. My favorite is a male Pelvicachromis something-or-other "(insert subtype)". I've looked all over but can't find any thing close. Here are his colors.
    Body top half:
    2 black stripes and 1 pale yellow stripe
    Body bottom half:
    HOT pink
    Fins:
    Faint purple
    Dorsal and caudal stripes:
    Top red, bottom blue (think toothpaste colors)
    Picture time!

    Manafel's right - it's a Kribensis (Pelvicachromis pulcher)

    Thanks for helping identify him guys! What do you think about him? I think he's special, not having eyespots and all.

    It WAS a proven pair, but the female passed away.
