CAS Update for 5/22/2016

CCA Members
I have made changes to Lwanda on the web site. Lwanda Yellow (Traditional Lwanda Red Top) are still the same as before. Lwanda with Orange Gene are limited to Males that show Lwanda like body, with yellow or yellowish orange on the shoulder and dorsal fins. When these are gone this fish will be discontinued.
The remainder of Lwanda with Orange Gene have been changed either to Aulonocara Uncertain Peacock #1 (Color Varies, most have more yellow or yellow orange on the body than a regular Lwanda and some may have white on their dorsal fin). (See Photo on Web Site) I am now of the option that this fish is some type of accidental cross (hybrid), possibly between the Lwanda Yellow and the Lwanda Orange; but, may have something else mixed in as well, since body shape is not always like Lwanda.
Or Aulonocara Uncertain Peacock #2 which has the Lwanda body; but orange on most of the body along with Orange on the Dorsal Fin. (See Photo on Web Site)
Both of these fish (Uncertain Peacock #1 and Uncertain Peacock #2) are being discontinued and for sale at 50% Off.
Lwanda Orange has been changed to Aulonocara Uncertain Red Peacock. This fish shows red on the shoulder, and tail with orange or red on the dorsal fin. It may be the proper Lwanda Orange or it may be a hybrid cross possibly between Red Shoulders and Lwanda. For now fry will still be collected from this fish and Males that look similar to the father (see Photo on Web Site) will continue to be sold at normal prices. If this fish fails to produce red males, it too will be discontinued.
I just received some Ngara from my secondary wholesaler. I have put them up under Ngara rather than Ngara Flametail for now. Some of the larger males show yellow on the body and a slight yellow on the tail. Others are mostly Blue. A few are showing hints of red on the lower body and Tail (See Photo on Web Site). This fish may or may not be the true Ngara Flametail since that fish also tends to show similar color variants.
My regular Ngara Flametail Males tend to start blue, get some yellow on the lower body and tail and then turn more red on the lower body and tail. Fish listed under this name come from the father in the photo on the web site or from my main wholesaler when he has them available.

Please help me to clear tanks by buying as many of the 50% Off sale fish as possible. When these fish are gone, I will have more space to spawn and grow out more colorful compatible males. I also need to clear some tanks so I can add two additional fish (One Peacock) and (One Hap).
