Very unusual, I like the bars on it. Don't know about this type.

Similar family to Convicts I think - they get a nice powder blue color w/ yellow and red. I am going to set up a breeding tank for these soon, in a 29gal tank that I have. Getting a breeding pair as soon as I put the tank in its final resting place (the wall) :)

Nice

Christie, did you see my birthday wish last night?

Tankmates hate him - I think because he's cool looking and they are jealous.

Lol Frank, he is cool looking. Wish he would stay still, would like to see his colors that you mentioned.

Tell me about it .. I'm thinking of setting up the camera to just keep snapping, and just set the camera near his favorite place and walk away... check it 10 minutes later and see what we get. Plus, new camera, so I'm still getting used to settings :)

Cool! What kind of camera did you get?

Had a Kodak Easyshare 2740 .. Christine just got a SONY DSC-S700 for christmas, but I dont really know how to use it yet. Kodaks batteries are dead :)

LOL that's kind of funny Frank. I went from a Kodak Z760 to a Sony DSC H9. Does the S700 also have the ability to take pics in infra red?

i have seen this species around, but i have never heard much about them, what is the temperment like? How large do they normally get?

I guess they would be like the convict?

yes, karrie same requirements as convicts, same final size too...i never saw these guys around here..been hunting for cutteris for years!

Chuck, I will have more Cutteris soon - picking up a breeding pair, almost done getting the tank ready :) If all works out and I get fry, you are more than welcome to some.

Karrie,

Seem to be fiesty, but not as bully-ish as convicts. Max size of 5" or so.

where are you frank?

where are you frank?

New York. You? I think Canada right? If so, are you near Quebec city by any chance?

near montreal..3 hrs drive from quebec city..why?

My brother in law has a condo in Quebec city, and he is there every other month or so. If you wanted Cutteri fry, I could send them up wtih him.

frank, that sounds great!!!keep me informed please!!!

Tank is going in the wall hopefully sometime this week - and fish probably next week. They are a breeding pair, so hopefully I will have a spawn within a month from now. :)
