Apistogramma christyi?

[KenL]

My friend pointed out a small advert in the British cichlid Assoc trading post for the above named fish.

I've never heard of it. Can anyone comment if it is a real species? If not, could anyone hazard a guess as to what these are likely to be?

Thanks.

Hi Ken,

How are you yes i read that as well I think it is a typo and should be one of 2 afican cichlids but as always i could be wrong.

I also noticed that error as it is certainly not a valid species. I agree with Peter in that it is probably one of the African species that uses the name Christyi ....

An "interesting" typo!

The only one that comes to mind readily is Neolamprologus christyi. A fascinating, yet aggressive, Tanganyikan cichlid. One of only two species that have actually made me bleed. The other one was also a Tang! :tongue:
