One of my favorite species I yet to own, Thank you Matt for the Update! Simply beautiful🙂

[@thecichliddojo4245]

Thank you Jesse for the support. Makes it worthwhile to do them

[@elephant0kingsueperb546]

They are coming along nicely!!

[@thecichliddojo4245]

Thank you 🙏

[@Golden.FishTank]

Nice update! they look like they are more colorful than in the last update on them, nice job keeping the water quality up!

[@thecichliddojo4245]

Thanks man. Yea hard to see clear differences for me when I see them daily

[@mraquaticnews5676]

Red Terror are unique looking fish. Must say you've always got an abundance of fry. Thanks for sharing

[@thecichliddojo4245]

Yes I agree. Hard to see my fishroom without festae in it

[@mraquaticnews5676]

@@thecichliddojo4245 These guys grow huge. How many tanks do you have? You seem to be able to handle the volume plus I'm sure you've got more than few tanks in fish room

[@thecichliddojo4245]

Currently 23 going on 25 soon

[@terryncejacobs1240]

Looking great!

Thank you

Love these guys. I have a fish in my quarantine tank but when he gets out I’m getting some

[@thecichliddojo4245]

Beautiful species

[@arindamscacichlids7113]

Also add some updates on the recent Rtm's that you're keeping. I miss keeping that species 😅

[@thecichliddojo4245]

You're right bro, I gotta get to it. That's my goal for next week

@@thecichliddojo4245 Wish i could get to raise some multifasciatus juvies in the near future.

[@bipolaraquatics]

Great info on these

[@thecichliddojo4245]

Thank you

[@christopherbrandt1895]

Love these fish yet they are so hard to find here in Jacksonville Florida. Do you sell these?

[@thecichliddojo4245]

Yes I do. Feel free to email me [e-mail]

[@BAcHIGU_]

They are slow growing indeed man, the batch I got from you only a few hit the 1" mark. What temp are you keeping the water at?

[@thecichliddojo4245]

Yea definitely requires patience. Mine are in 80F water

[@sierrag1985]

Great day! You have a real cool channel. I am interested in a small female red terror, not for breedinh. I want a female predator tank, with a female jaguar and a female yellow jacket cichlid andthe red terror female. Do u think this would work in a 125 gal tank? How much would you sell a female festae and ship to florida? Thanx!

[@thecichliddojo4245]

Thank you for the support. That would be an aggressive mix. I would guess that's too few fish to work. I don't have any sexed fish available currently but when I do I'll mention first here in my videos

[@sierrag1985]

@@thecichliddojo4245 Great day! what other fish should I add? Indo datnoid? large synodontis? dither fish- giant danio, silver dollar?

[@thecichliddojo4245]

I'm definitely a fan of silver dollars as dithers

[@sierrag1985]

@@thecichliddojo4245 I appreciate you responding.would an indo dat, jag flagtail prochilodus and dithers be an option as well. I'm trying to find a way to keep some of the fish I find interesting.

[@thecichliddojo4245]

I honestly wouldn't know, haven't been able to keep those yet for myself
