Well, the Cutteris seem to be out as Jeff won't have any by the time I go home...you could still venture an order with him, though, and see if you can get a whole bunch...ten (which would barely put you over the $50 order limit) might be a bit much for your tank, but you could always sell one or two to the LFS in exchange for food...

I've seen those ones...they are pretty, but they might just be a little out of the ol' price range...$45 for one fish??? I've never paid more than $2.50!
The Cutteris are the ones that I initially called Spilurum varieties, but they are actually their own species...they're the ones that are smaller and more colourful than the Spilurums.

i know they are kind of expensive but if you go to jeffs site and look for the geophagus the other..bah i dont know the word...yuou know the other types of geophagus are almost as pretty and much cheaper in price
i went to the website, and looked at the picture. the picture of the blue eyes are not very pretty, but i know its only pictures of the young, but any idea what these will look like when they get older? jsut curious because i have seen some not so pretty blue eyeds
They seem to be pretty if you look around the Web a little bit for the fish by its scientific name...also, demon, I looked, and I still can't fathom spending that much on a fish for some of the other Geos...I wish that I could meet the min. order somehow, but, for right now, I think that I'll have to be content looking at Jeff's fish wistfully. <sigh> On the plus side, I will learn first-hand with a convict, and that will make it easier to keep Archocentros (Cryptoheros, anyone else hear the name change may soon come?) species in the future.
the Archocentros are neat looking. I am goign to have a 20 gallon tank opening up soon and i have been thinking about putting a couple of convicts in it...I have never really looked at them before but there are some with really nice coloration
so have you set yourself on what size tank you are going to use yet?? 20 or a 55??

To save on expense, I'm going to go with the 20 high that I already have. Plus, it will be easier to maneuver, which could be of the utmost importance, as I may have to break down a tank or two and bring them home for Winter Break next year!
how about angelfish..they can be very hardy and owner responsive...nice colors and awesome finnage. what are you going to do with that idea you had of tanganikans? they would work in a 20 gallon...not sure about how owner responsive they would be though
