maby a pulu point/red zeb cross a elecie yellow  maby

[here fishie fishie]

Look very similar to Gold Zebs, popped up on the scene 2004. If they are, more than likely a cross between Electric Yellow & a Pulu Point Zebra.  But as an example, a mate has a female one in a display tank & she breeds with a Cobalt Blue. :roll:
 
Can really see the Pulu Points in them.(photo)

Frenchy :D

they arnt barlowii thats for sure , or they are a dirrerent strain to the ones i have .none of the ones in the piccie have any blue through their  fins and arnt yellow (like the male barlowii is)  even the female barlowi isnt red like the ones in the piccie.

To me they look crossed but could be wrong just one seems to have a large peacock eye and the rest small eyes and head shape isn't constant.

in real life they are bright yellow  with some  blue  on  body

I agree...not barlowi. Some sort of cross I'd be thinking. Bring some with you when you come over to Perth  :lol:

Suppose not the best question on a public forum, a private pm with, eg; far away, or they like bamboo, or octoberfest be good this year... 8O sure you could of thought of something if they are locals. I know of a local who's breeding what looks the same as yours.
'but'
If its meant to be a big secret & all, because you think they are some fancy new zeb. Heres a tip, maybe ask what the fish is when you buy them. :wink:

So they're not those line bred Labidochromis caeruleus? The ones where people bred out all the black to produce an all-yellow E.yellow.

I remember a bloke in Perth did this about 2 years ago. Caused a bit of a ruckus on the Nth American Cichlid-Forum.com when displaying his handiwork, but I think they're fairly common in the States now anyway.

That's what they suspiciously look like to me anyway.  :?
