Do you mean the Thorichthys Ellioti?

I got mine from the Redditch charity auction last December I believe Tim Addis who runs the TA Aquaculture website was breeding them, he was also breeding Thorichthys Mixteco Gold & Heckle-faced Severums.

Also seen them on ebay for stupid prices - I paid about a fiver a pair if I remember.

By the way, they don't live as pairs, you need a group of about 4-6 as they don't form a pair bond except when looking after a batch of eggs.

Sorry about the cr*p photo but the light is the wrong colour to get a decent shot, the male above often has a bright red under belly.
