So last night I was in Fish R Fun. The guy there offered me these tiny little pale yellow fish. He said he would offer me 5 for $1.25 and throw in a free female guppy that I had my eye on. I asked him what they were and he said "yellow lemons". I asked if they were good community fish, and he said they were. When I looked at them closely (being only 1/2" or so) they looked like cichlids. He said they were but not like most other cichlids in that they were excellent community fish. The price was right, so I took them!
Well last night I acclimatized them and then introduced them into the big 150g community tank. This morning they are well settled. They are small, but my tank is mostly small and/or peaceful occupants. The lights haven't gone on yet, but they seem happy hovering around the crevices between some fo the big pebbles. They look a bit llong, clearly cichlid shaped, yellow with some having a bit of balck or gray at the top edge of the dorsal fin. Some have some white or silver tinge to their pectorals.
I'll see if I cna get some pix later, but in the meantime, does anyone have any ideas?
