Re: NFC: Re kribs...
There are a number of really nice pelvicachromis species available.
Pelvicachromis roloffi is the drabest and Pelvicachromis humilis is the
largest. Pelvicachromis taeniatus has the most forms available. You can
sometimes get some of these fish from the place below. you might contact
Friedrich Bitter, who would love to send you some for a shipment of flagfins
or sailfins.
