Ok, I've sat by and watched this thread go... my turn to add fuel to the fire... or get burned..!!! Whos to say that different locations of a particular Aggie arent the same fish.... just because the first fish is from Rio X and the second one is from Rio Y.... why couldnt they be the same fish just different places.... Now as for not crossing aquarium strains of aggies or even Cacatuoides.... hell i have no problems with that..... i've had some nice fish come out of crossing a double red aggie with an alenquer type aggie.... if and when i sell these fish at auctions, they are clearly labeled such that.... a cross of two types..... Aquarium strains are just that ...... aquarium strains.!!!! And from a LOOKS point of view... funny how that Rio Tigre aggie looks ALOT like my Alenquer strain does...... HMMmmmmmmmm!! Lt Chekov..... shields up!!!!! Red Alert..!! John ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This is the apistogramma mailing list, apisto@listbox.com.
