Introducing My New Johannii
Introducing My New Johannii
Melanochromis johannii
Got him as a gift today. Wife found him in Tullahoma fish store for 8.99, I think that was a good price.

Nice! I looked at a bunch of beautiful Peacocks and Haps today. Thinking of a new collection.

WOW! That's a nice looking fish! You're so lucky! =)

He's 3 1/4 inches and they top out at 4 to 5. He's big for a fish store.

My friend paid $14.99 for hers, so you got a good price!

not johanni for sure, its m. chipokae!

Agree that it is a chipokae, so that revises the size it will max out at (~7" so he's only half grown); also much more aggressive than a johanni, but great looking fish!

yeah, be carefull , Roger, those a quite nasty, and often becomes the king in the tank where they are , due to their larger size and agressive behavior

nice fish but why the blue water??
Kay Bee19 » posted 2007/11/03 - 14:06  
The blue is probably due 'bag buddies' or something.
