01-01-2007 23:04 by paul stevens	What the hell is that beast of a fish.. Is it yours mate..
01-01-2007 23:10 by yanton	looks like one of the tilipia cichlids cichlids to me.
01-01-2007 23:12 by paul stevens	Ok ok we heard you the first time yanton..
01-01-2007 23:12 by nige	no, not mine
01-01-2007 23:13 by curviceps	Looks like a Mozambique tilapia, Oreochromis mossambicus.
01-01-2007 23:13 by paul stevens	Did your server slow up then yanton...
01-01-2007 23:14 by paul stevens	Oh if it was i was going to tell ya to get your marry golds back on and give that glass a good clean in that tank..
01-01-2007 23:15 by nige	thanks curviceps that one really had me stuck
01-01-2007 23:16 by Ed	Agree with yanton, african tilapia these fish will breed more than guppies.
01-01-2007 23:17 by Linda Chenapa	Yes, I agree with curviceps, looks like a mozambique mouth brooder.
01-01-2007 23:18 by curviceps	Would agree with that, I had 1 male and 2 females, never ending supply of fry.
01-01-2007 23:22 by paul stevens	But some of you said this was a moz tilapia when i got it.
01-01-2007 23:23 by wayne	yes would agree with who ever is right , that way im right to i thought mouthbrooder coz of the mouth shape
01-01-2007 23:23 by paul stevens	And this is classed as one aswell.
02-01-2007 00:30 by Danny Boy	could be a mosambique tilapia i have bred white ones and ones like the picture above. i would put it in the tilapia family for sure though. there are a lot of diffrent strains
02-01-2007 09:25 by Alan	The one that people said looked like a mozambique looks more like a fossochromis rostratus to me the bottom picture is of a male oreochromis mozambique and the fish you have got looks like the commercially bred version of the gold mozambique and yes they do breed like guppies but are a remarkably peaceful cichlid. It is very easy to stunt their growth buy keeping them in a group 1 male to a few females they are unlikely to get over 6" long if ypou do this as most of their energy goes into breeding but if lone specimens are kept 16" in lenght is feasible.
02-01-2007 10:36 by Bogwoodbruce	Some sort of tilapia or montagese.
02-01-2007 11:30 by jonie	montages? motaguense u mean??
02-01-2007 13:07 by Bogwoodbruce	Yep
02-01-2007 14:24 by jonie
04-01-2007 12:08 by PaddyD	Definately an - Oreochromis almost certainly a mossambicus or hybrid of mossambicus (with another Oreochromis species) They are a very variable species - and they is a wide variation and several strains as danny says.
04-01-2007 16:08 by Kribman	Question here, since this seem like a promising source! I have four Kribensis in a 30 gallon tank that I got from a friend and I can't distinguish the males from the females. One fish has has died bringing me down to four and they are starting to get aggresive. Any suggestions?
04-01-2007 17:00 by wayne	so you had 4 then i died and now you got 4 maybe the dominant one died and now they are fighting for dominance
