yeah gene they start out blue and end up yellow pretty much,some variance,thats the reason i got them never get bore,different males too watch morph,some in my group throw albinos also,a big group of them is something too see also,my friend has groups of both also,so far touchiest fish ive housed to date.......these are the jumbo regular kitumbas,then theres albinos,the mirco pavo kitumba is a cool cyp as far as micros go...........TROPHS 4 LIFE

quick question....what is your filter setups and do you use alot of flow or low flow....and have you seen any diffrence with the flow setups? last setup of mine was a 125 but i left it fairly calm at top section....i fill they dont need the flow of what trophs and other tangs need....could be stupid questions but thinking and typing....thanks mickey210 gallon tank...empty.....wait till you see what is comingComment

In all honesty I didn't think too much of Cyps till recently. I have group a F1 Cyp Kekese that I bought to use as dither fish. With each passing day I like them more and more. I just got in a new group of Trophs and had to do some moving around but I just don't want to part with my Cyps, they really grow on you.120g - Tropheus Moorii Kambwimba
180g - Petrochromis Macrognathus Dine/Tropheus Moorii Namansi I

my thoughts exactly, didn't think id like them as much as i do,the rarity of WC's over here kinda lured me in,congo,but they are something else,don't know what else you could get with as much color before going to salt lol........sure glad i got themOriginally posted by Gene D View PostTROPHS 4 LIFE
