| Does anyone know anything about Madagascar Cichlid they have on the end row of there africans at animal jungle, titled black and white cichlid ... and is labeled under "bleekeri cichlid"
Now my question is , is it truly a bleekeri or is it a polleni cichlid , i think there common names are big spot cichlid vs a small spot cichlid. I am not all that sure how to identify them correctly so does anyone know for sure which it is ?
If I happen to go later in the week and there all gone I may cry : P |

| I will try to snap some pics of them on Saturday, if they got the algae off the glass so I can see them. Maybe someone can identify them off that. **********USAfishbox.com************* My Tanks [You must be registered and logged in to see this link.] |

| Yeah always worth taking a second look at the fish there. They do their best to label them but I have found a few times where they did not correctly ID a fish. The other thing that can happen is they often move tanks and forget to change the names on them haha. If you talk to ED (shorter guy with a ponytail) he is just about the best source of info while in the store as to what a fish is. |
