Neetroplus nematopus, an american cichlid

Allie · October 28th, 2007

A friend of ours gave us around 15 .5", baby neetroplus nematopus "the poor mans tropheus". We're growing them out and I am keeping a pair hopefully.
Here's a pic of them in the quarentine tank.

Very cool fish.
I think they are a nice fish in their own right.
I dislike the name poor mans tropheus.
