I've just started reading this post and I'm not sure exactly which Victorian
everyone is discussing.
Haplochromis species #44 is the vic that is commonly (and incorrectly)
called the Haplochromis obliquidens.
Astatotilapia latifasciata is the vic that is commonly called the zebra
obliquidens.
One particular color of Paralabidochromis sp "rock kribensis" is the vic
commonly called the Hap "half-crimson"
One particular color of Pundamilia nyererei is the vic commonly called the
crimson tide.

wow... I was drowning in those for the last couple of years! I had a trio
that was breeding constantly.. I finally got rid of the juveniles at the
last couple of auctions and sold the parents too.

!! I've been looking for those for a looooooooooooooong time!!
astatotilapia (latifasciata) sp. 44 used to be named zebra obliquidens,
but
now they're no longer labeled as that...wow...you're so lucky to have
gotten
these!!

I recently purchased some victorians, I cannot find much info on them
at
all, wondering if anyone could help. They are Paralabidacromis sp.
half
crimson tides which I think has been renamed to haplochromis half
crimson
and Astatotilapis sp. 44 which we hope are the haplochromis zebra
obliquedens. can anyone confirm or deny?
Thanks a bunch
Kelly
