Per. You are absolutely right. The maronis go great with

apisto. standachneri. Now where do I get steindachneri??

Again I ask the whole group where can I find the xanthistic form of Etropolus maculatus. I can't even find the natural form!

Hi Michael B.,

ApistoDave(Dave Soares) is currently selling small young (3/4") adult steindachneri on AquaBid. I think he told me they were F1 generation. He ships from Oregon. I've ordered from him in the past and all the fish arrived healthy, alert and they quickly settled into their new tanks. These fish were shipped all the way across country to Vermont and they were in better condition than some I brought home from a LFS.

Ancient dude I have a bunch of Steindachneri and would be happy to send you some they bet fairly large for an apisto and could handle the tank mates.

Michael C. cootwarm THANKS!

Michael and All- Had a wonderful response to my inquiry RE: steindachneri from "cootwarm" in VT. He endorsed Dave Soares in Sisters OR and told me he had A. steindachneri for sale. Since they were gorgeous in association with C. maroni I am ordering a male and two females. He (apistoDave) can be reached at (541) 549-9350.

Now, please, someone-the xanthistic form of Etroplus maculatus "Orange Chromide"-one of our very few Asian cichlids and almost a dwarf. TIA.
