Lamprologus Sp.?

Hey Red, tetraodon miuris isnt a cichlid  :? Crazy looking fish though  :)

So far we are working with a Tanganyikan Cichlid less than 10cm.

Altolamprologus sp. 'compressiceps shell' (sumbu)?

Red, I dont think you are getting it  :?

We guess and Dave will point us in the right direction each day with a yes or no answer to our questions. That way we continually narrow it down to the fish that he's thinking of.

It's pointless guessing fish that no longer fit within the clues being given - ie: Pufferfish from the congo arent [b:0a4252bd6d]cichlids[/b:0a4252bd6d] from [b:0a4252bd6d]lake Tanganyika[/b:0a4252bd6d], nor is a Madagascan Rainbowfish.

Not trying to put you off having a go, just chuck in a bit of research and make sensible guesses.  :)

just one question is it (max. size in aquarium or max. size in the wild.)

Neolamprologus leleupi

ndoboi

I guess there's a bit of conjecture over the size - just ask GC who thought I ripped him off in the last quiz  :wink:

Not speaking for everybody here, but I use the reference material available to me (which generally cites wild lengths). Would also have to consider TL and SL if being super picky. :roll:

Anybody else have an opinion on this one??? Brad - do you want to lay down the law (or I may have missed one of the original rules)?

Neolamprologus Speciosus?

Aquariums Alive

Hey guys
Id say total length and depends on the Information you use
though if you want to use either its up to you Just another question to ask when a size has been confirmed [i:d40fe2420d][b:d40fe2420d]is that TL?[/b:d40fe2420d][/i:d40fe2420d] remember question has to be asked so a Yes or No can be answered

when im researching a fish i try and use a few differnet sources and usually work on the sources that seem to be the same
I.e if 5 resources say max size 10cm and 2 say 12cm
id go with the 10cm myself
Also depends on the resouces you use
If your using the net well it can be very difficult as there is alot of conflicting information
I try to keep this comp without many rules as it can make it confusing
