Amititlania nanolutea

[JanOlson]

Anyone have any interest in a group of young adult Amititlania nanolutea? I have 5-7 I’d like to sell.

What do you want for them? Are they old enough to sex?

 

[JanOlson]

They’re not easy enough to sex for me to be sure. There are 4 that are probably male and 3 that are probably female but it’s a guess. I’d take $40 for all.

Not a common cichlid around here. I have never seen them for sale before.

I hadn’t either. Got some fry from a lady back east last fall. Now I have a pair with fry and 7 other adults that I worry are going to run me out of the fish room. They’re as hardy as their more frequently seen cousins and more attractive in my opinion.

I would post pictures if I was smart enough to figure out how to do it.

I believe you will need to use a hosting site like imgur. Copy the link from there and click on the picture icon in the top right corner of the screen. Paste the link into the box and upload

Thanks, that helped.

I thought the males got a black "mask" between the eyes. Maybe it's just when breeding or I'm thinking of something else. Supposed to be very peaceful. Are the eyes blue or silver?

 

[Walter Grunden]

There are some differences in color and markings. Cichlid forum profiles has several different photos. See this link https://www.cichlid-forum.com/profiles/species.php?id=131

Jan, there is always the auction next month if you can't get any takers.

 

[JanOlson]

My female that’s guarding a brood definitely has a black mask between her eyes. Also more black markings in the unpaired fins. Males have more elongated fins but until they mature it’s tuff for me to bank on it.

 

[JanOlson]

I would definitely call the eyes blue.

That’s my plan B but the way they’re acting I may have 3 or 4 pairs with spawns by then. I only have so much tank space lol.

I'd be happy to take them off your hands. Where are you located?

 

[JanOlson]

I'm at Lake Lotawana but I'm willing to meet at a location closer to you. Did you want all 7 fish for $40? My email is jan@unioncove.com.

 

[clgkag]

Sorry, wasn't feeling well yesterday and wasn't on computer all day. Yes, I will take the whole group. I am in Raymore, Mo. I can meet you anywhere between here and there.

It appears that the Quiktrip at 291 and 150 in Greenwood is about dead center. What would be a good day and time for you?

I get off work at 2:00 everyday so most afternoons until about 4:00. This sunday should work also.
