A few months back I went to a LFS, not my usual place. There I saw a beautiful black and blue fish in the "assorted cichlid" tank. I thought it resembled pictures I had seen of a Johanni. Since I was not sure I asked the person waiting on me. They said it was a Johanni. I brought "him" home and all was going great. About the time other color changes were happening in the tank (learned chipoake was male, that's an awesome change in color) this fish started to lose/change color. The picture is what I see 95% of the time. I did see that blue black coloration about 4-5 days ago when he came flying out from behind a plant and gave chase to another fish. When he was done with his chase and returning to his preffered side of the tank he was already back to the color seen in the not so great photo. He does have a lot more yellow in the tail and on the tips of fins then what shows. WHAT"S UP WITH THAT!!!??:huh:
