Jimmy - I haven't used California cichlids. I've lost interest in Aquabid since there are so many local suppliers of fish and dry goods.
Have you checked Dave's Fish, one of our sponsors? He has a lot of Vics. We get 10% off anything we purchase.

I placed a order from California Cichlids about 10 months ago. They sent three extra adult fish for free and 3 of the females were holding wigglers. His shipping prices are extremely fair. I highly recommend them.

I've heard good things from the folks I know that have done biz with C.C.

This p. nyererei variant is one of the '07 imports from Mwanza Gulf. Nobody knows for sure any more exact collection location. Make absolutely certain that you do NOT mix in any fish from any other locale with these. This is one of the Vics with the clearest provenance in the hobby! Breed them often, share them liberally---but keep the bloodline pure :megacool:

BTW the males are absolutely frikken stunning fish--one of the nicest reds you'll ever see in a fresh water tank!

Hello , I Didn'T know if I should post this in the forum or not .:coz: I joined a forum for vics called Cichlids of victoria and there are a bunch of posts about cali cichlids selling hybrids . the Pundamilia Nyererei Red Mwanza specifically . I also received a pm Beware of what I get from him because he mixes the varieties of Pundamilia Nyererei to get better colored males . He's not allowed to be promoted on the site and another site is baning him to ! Just wanted to give everybody a heads up !! :becky:

Jimmy - according to an email I received on Monday, Dave is having a 20% off sale for all his fish in stock. You may want to check there for Vics.

The sale lasts until October 31.
