Well, the most I can say about them is they (eunotus) seem to be addictive! I got a bunch of new fish recently and started sending the pics to Germany and everytime I got the E-mail back saying they were Eunotus. These fish all looked different to me! I think they are really wide spread and have many color forms--turns out in the end mine are the Orangeschwanz CF nice fish, not difficult to keep or breed.

Dave, do you have any more eunotus in stock? I missed out by a mere 10 minutes on getting a full-grown adult male from my LFS. Books simply do not do this fish justice. Now, I'm all about bitaeniata--IMO among the most beautiful fish of ANY type, dwarf cichlid or not--but the eunotus was downright IMPRESSIVE. Tall dorsal with long extensions, long anal fin, vibrant orange caudal, blue-green sheen on the body, and a very pleasing overall shape...strutting around the tank like a peacock! I could kick myself for missing out. If you have any, I'd be extremely interested. Thanks...

Sorry, Dave, I edited my post but for some reason the edited version isn't showing up. Anyways, I didn't realize you were a wholesale distributor until I saw your website in full, and I obviously can't meet the minimums. Thanks anyway, and sorry for the inconvenience!
