Testimonials

placed an order for a few species of cichlids after much conversation with Owner Jay to make sure I was on the right path, as its my 1st cichlid tank, after many emails even before I was a customer with Jay on setting up the tank correctly he was giving out Great advice, one of the reasons I ordered. . . .

- Timothy ( LONG BEACH, NY)

I ordered a trio of sex uncertain yellow labs from Jay and am very satisfied with the quality, especially of the one that appears to be a male. Although i am away from home and have only seen the fish through pictures taken on my brother's phone I can definitely say I will be doing business with CAS. . . .

Glossary of Terms

Sex Uncertain: This fish is too small or not showing enough signs of specific sex yet. Many times 2.5" and up Sex Uncertain will turn out to be females.

Female: This fish is large enough to show male like color or markings and has yet to do so - however, a few males can be late bloomers

Part Color Male: This fish has signs of being male, usually slight color, egg spots, or other male like markings. Some fish, especailly haps can be slow to turn full color.

Male: These are full color male fish. Mbuna fish are tough to sex and may occasionally full me.

WILD: This fish is collected from their native body of water and imported for the aquarium trade. I rarely get these type fish; but, sometimes they are available by special order.

F1: This fish is the progeny of two wild cichlids and are one generation removed from the wild

F2: This fish is the progeny of two F1 cichlids and are two generations removed from the wild

Pair/Trio Only: These fish are sized based on the male's size (females may be an inch or more smaller)

There are no guarantees of sex, compatible pair, or compatible trio combinations; all fish sold as male and female are considered 'likely male' and 'likely female' respectively

Swallowtails are peaceful to a mildly aggressive variant of the Otter Point peacock. They have a similar color to Aulonocara Eurkea Red. Males develop white extensions on the end of their dorsal fin and tail around 5+". Females are cream with brown stripes. These fish are part of the Jacobfreibergi group; but, are less aggressive than other peacocks in that group.

Photo is one of my wholesaler's breeder males.

Peaceful Peacock that mixes well with other Peacocks (other than Jacobfreibergi types of a similar color), Haplochromis, milder Mbuna, and milder Lake Victorians in single male tanks. Do not mix different Aulonocara females in the same tank. (See Compatibility Chart)

Available through my special order lists occasionally If ordered enough, I may begin to bring these back into stock in single males of 3" or larger.

Best kept in single males in all-male tanks, 75-gallon or larger tank recommended.

The best mix of sex for breeding is one male with five or six females. 40-gallon breeder or larger tank recommended.
