I think those are Paralabidochromis sp. "fire" or sp. "fire uganda". How do you plan on housing your Vics? Many victorian females look alot alike. Keeping your two species separated will be important so as to alleviate issues with crossbreeding.

I don't need to know when you get them, I only need to know when you have some fry available!!!! They are very cool!

This thread made me look at my breeding stock of P. nyererei... I am unsure of variant and am very sad. Because now I have about a hundred fry that are teetering on the brink of feeders. :(

Nah, I won't throw them out. New game plan is to grow the fry out to juveniles and see what kind of markings I get. This will show me what patterns are most common in the breed. So on and so forth. But I still am not sure if I should bother stripping the female I haven't seen for about a week...

no Shelton is northwest of Olympia but you have to go through Olympia to get there

Or take a fairy from Seattle to Bremerton and go that way, avoid a lot of traffic.

So I think me and my wife decided that they are actually Mbipia lutea. At least for now. We shall see what we get. Would be cool still either way, and no albinos come up in search.

If your nyererei breed after you get them and spoil them for a while, I would be interested in some fry as well!
