This
video
shows two
small Cichlids
that are
probably
related to the
fish that Matt
from Buffalo,
NY, discusses
during this
show.
Matt from Buffalo,
New York, calls and
says he's gotten
some Checkered
Cichlids, which are
also called
Chessboard Cichlids,
and formerly had the
scientific name
Crenicara filmentosa
but apparently now
are
Dicrossus
filamentosus. This
species probably
needs R/O water, and
Matt says he put
some peat moss
pellets in his
aquarium filter on
top of the charcoal.
Matt also says he
emailed us some
pictures, one of
which is shown below
of his new fish.
