      Kabimba "Canary Cheeks" are a Middle-Northwest coast brichardi.

      Mpimbwe are a Southeast Coast.

      Yes the tank was Jolley's but it will be mine on the 6th.

                          I have never seen Kabimba wild collected. I have only seen them in Burundi pondraised juviniles, or in tankraised from these colonies.

                              I haven't seen them pop up on American import lists either.

                              But there were a number of members on trophs.com that had them....in Europe.
