Rare African Cichlids

Tylochromis pulcher, Pterochromis congicus, Tilapia cf.congica and Lates niloticus

Crenicichla hu and Hybrid Crenicichla closeup

Crenicichla confusion

Should be mandelburgeri, minuauno, gaucho

but then: 2 species from Iguassu, one with a small pointed mouth, one with a long mouth and big lips.

Natural Crenicichla Hybrid

It has been documented in the Southern Crenicichlas. This appears to be a natural hybrid of the local Creni.lenticulata and Creni.cf.lugubris Red from the Rio Inirida. Picture 1 = hybrid, picture 2 lugubroid, picture 3 lenticulata

Potamotrygon "falkneri"

the (Hyper-)Trophy Wife!!!!

Crenicichla spec. "Botox": The "Botox Pike", the most extreme hypertrophied lips ever seen on a South American cichlid. More pronounced than the similar Crenicichla tendybaguassu!! Thank you to Mark Smith for pointing out that this fish has also been called tendyguassu by some people, hopefully we can drop this pseudoscientific name for the much funnier sp. "Botox".
