Wild caught Dwarf Cichlid in China

[zhihuai1982]

i am a chinese dwarf cichlid enthusiast. I find many so-called wild caught dwarf cichlid have been imported into China from Brazil or Peru. It was so many that i can't stop thinking that wether they are real wild caught or tank breeding in Brazil, then imported into China. I am worry about the in-breeding problem. Can anybody give some clues?

me want to know too. is there more and more tank-breading or pond raised apistos from Brazil? especially the Adokeda. this species is so hot in these 2 years! however, many has claimed that it was very easy to know if it is wild caught ones, which shows very clear separate verticle stripes across top of the body..
