hmmm. Not many. Just the rock kribs.

Pet stores have been known to sell any of the Pelvicachromis species as Kribensis
including Pelvicachromis subocellatus and Pelvicachromis taeniatus. My LFS is currently selling a Krib-like fish as Kribensis and while I haven't yet to figured out exactky what it is it certainly isn't Pelvicachromis pulcher.

I'm not being argumentative I just think scientific names keep it clearer. You should post a picture.

I agree with the scientific name thing, though. Around here, I have yet to see someone sell a fish under kribensis as a different Pelvicachromis species. Honestly, I don't really pay much attention to West African Cichs anyways, more of a CA/SA fan.

I'll shut up now and post a picture :grinyes:
