Here are some imaes of my wild caught Pel. taeniatus 'Nigeria green' kribs. I ordered 30 of them and some other fish I did nto want in order to be able to get this species. The total was $245. The P. taeniatus were so starved and malnourished that I have lost 23 of the 30. Of the seven I have left, there is only one female. So... I have a $245 pair of kribs... and I am very happy to get them. I have been trying to get wild Nigerian P. taeniatus for a long time. They come in sporadically and usually in very bad shape.

The fish look very beautiful!! Despite the fact that i haven't kept the western african dwarf cichlids for some years, i know how precious they can be. :)
