I would agree with you Geoff.

Hand picking, or having the right connection get you what you want.

I will also say though that I would be interested to know if they are always like that.
The color can be mood dependent and would be surprised if they keep the color at all times.

Still Arthur has some outstanding Moshi and other Petro's.

No way they are always like that.

Maybe he dyed them ?? -- Wait he is not Asian, he is Danish and that wouldn't even cross his mind. Well if I get a chance to see them in person I will let you know.. I am working on going to Denmark next year and I am already meeting some tank owners over there while I am there...

Holy crap..... Jesper's stereotyping?

**geoff_tropheus** · 03-21-2009, 12:42 PM

I wouldnt think they are either, but everytime I watch them in youtube video's and the pics he posts, they are as yellow as the sun.

There's a big difference in picking visually like the most, and those that you know you can work with in the aquarium.

Just Like Tropheus, there is such a huge variety in variant, color, and morph that makes it difficult. Especially, when Petrochromis is not hardly collected and then kept because of its agression issues in aquaria.

Putting all that aside, I would pick

1. Sp.Texas Flourescent Blue's
2. Orthognatus Ikola Tri colors
3. Red Fin Longolas
4. sp.red Bulu Point
5. Solid Bright Yellow Moshi - that Arthur has..

Really the flourescents? Have you seen this fish in person?

I have.. I was not impressed.

never in person, just the internet photos and Konnings books
