Title: Pachypanchax lovers needed
Post by Ryan Enright on Jul 23^rd, 2021 at 4:45pm

Hello fellow AKA folks. I'm looking to build a list of people who work with any of the pachypanchax species. Ideally I would like to form a network of us who can can share tips, tricks, eggs, and fish with each other to help get these special fish better established in the US hobby.

This is an old thread but I had playfairii that I got from Sarah Walker and I liked them. I eventually lost them but I never have forgotten them. Wouldn't mind trying them again. Maybe I'll ask Sarah if she has them still this spring. Just not having any luck at all with West African Aphyosemion or Fundulopanchax .

Hey Medric,

I keep playfairii and sakaramyi and could get you one or the other once things warm up. I am active in the AKA species maintenance group and we would love to add you as someone maintaining Pachypanchax.

Andy

If this Pachypanchax group is still going I would like to get in on it . I once had playfairii but I was not successful with them and would like to try them again . I am in Billings Montana .
