Just got back from trading some Wendolov Java Fern for a pair of Pelvicachromis taeniatus (Moliwe). They are floating now. I love their subtle colors. We're trying to find a suitable species for Lucy's 12g Mr. Aqua bookshelf tank. I hope they work out.

Now back to dealing with the homebuyer from hell who hasn't met a deadline yet. Don't know why I haven't fired him.  I guess it's because I'm the type that wants to be the one to pull the deal together...! I could have more free time if I gave this feller (or sub in another 6-letter word beginning with f and ending in er!) the heave-ho and fired his arse!
Happy Aquariuming,
Ron

These guys have been around forever.  There's  Pelvicachromis taeniatus "Bipindi", "Lobe", "Makoure", "Moliwe", "Wouri" just to name a few.  It's always just been assumed that they were all Pelvicachromis taeniatus but with different regional color variations, hence the names from where they were collected.  Glaser is saying one of them Pelvicachromis taeniatus "Wouri" is in fact a different species.....

Most definitely, although crossing them would make them virtually worthless.

I'd just like my newly acquired Moliwe pair would just come out of the back corner so I could see them once in a while! If they breed it's a plus!
Happy Aquariuming,

Good luck with them Ron.  They are very cool fish.  Definitely on my list if I ever get back to cichlids.   ;)
