I am looking for advice on Orange Chromides. I like the way they look, but I have been unsuccessful at finding any at any of my lfs. :huh: I've only been able to find pictures in aquarium books. If someone could help me out with pics of their orange chromide or any helpful suggestions that would be great! Anything else you can tell me about them would be wonderful. Thanks in advance. :D
 
If you find any let me know I've been looking for a while now with no luck...the online stores I found them at are alway's out of stock!!
 
I'm headed out right now to check out some other places, but I'm not holding my breath. Right now I'm really interested in seeing some real life orange chromides or pics.
 
i used to have an orange chromide, after sticking him in a tank with a small firemouth and keeni cichlid i quickly rrealized he was not an aggresive cichlid, he was getting beaten up by them so i stuck him in myother tank, which had four turquoise gouramis, a platy, and a catfish,( he did great in there) and was allready over stocked so i was forced to stick him back in the cichlid tank were eventuall the keeni took him out, but this may be a surprise to you but i got it at meijer for about $3.50 for 1.5 inch. But the last 2 times i was there they were out...
 
PM your high storage email address, I'll sendn you a movie I took of my orange and "natural morph" orange chromide parents and their fry. I'll send some pics too. Pair still doing very well in my tank. Fry all eaten by tankmates. Refugium in the works. . .

brackishdude---I'd love to see pics of your chromides. My e-mail address is stingray4540@yahoo.com.

gstoffer---I found someone who has good stock and he does ship fish. His website is mainlycichlids.com. My husband just got some electric blue manganos from him and they are very nice. He is located in a warehouse so his prices are VERY reasonable. When we were there he didn't have any orange chromides, but he said he could get a hold of them for anybody who's interested. Check out his web-site and good luck!
