Wow, Juan, he really has come into his on now. Great looking Dempsey. Shonna, i "used to" give my cichlids ham, oither sandwich meats and small peices of cheese on the odd occasion, it never did them any harm. But now i tend to stick with a more natural diet.

Nathan Sederholm » posted 2007/11/26 - 20:23  
Man, saw again, nice. You just have a nice one is all. Carrying the gene doesn't mean they show it. Just look normal.
