Cichlid Guessing Game CA & SA Cichlids

[DMD123]

Alright here is mine:


And at least I will give a hint: Native to coastal rivers of Pacific Panama. It's known from the TuÃra, Chucunaque and Bayano river drainages.

Tends to inhabit large, permanent bodies of water including lakes and ponds, although it's also been recorded in slow-moving parts of rivers. It particularly favours submerged rocky walls and banks, where it swims among the crevices.

Amphilophus calobrensis

That is correct!

Identified in only 8 minutes, must have been too easy. I will have to find something really difficult for the next one.

 

[TerenceH]

Ok that one does not look like the first two...

My guess.... Central American Cichlid native to Pacific Panama

OK this should keep all going for a bit.

Man this one is tough. I actually found the exact picture on-line and they had it listed as the Cichlasoma trimaculatum

http://www.fishphoto.tk/cichlids/cichlasoma-trimaculatum

So I am not crazy! They have it mislabeled on this site.

WOW, nice find. Ya that picture is out of place.

South American, only gets around 3-5", found in the Amazon River basin. It is a recently new genus. Say found in 1996. (hint)

cryptoheros myrnae

Nope. :

Yes it is a normal color. The picture makes it look huge but does not get very big. Found in Ecuador, and Columbia.
