Hello all. This is my first post. Figured I would share in my excitement today. I picked up 6 baby Honduran Redpoints for my 55. The biggest one is about an inch long and look how much color already!!

Welcome to the forum, Fishoil.
First post with pics included and everything---off to an awesome start!

Congrats on the HRP's, and best of luck in raising the little guys. I'm assuming you're going for a breeding pair? What other tanks/fish do you have?

FreshwaterJeff:

I'm not sure how the aggression is compared to convicts. I also heard less, and that's why I got them. Not to mention that the LFS had a tank full of babies. I was tired of the drama in my tank, but still wanted some colorful cichlids.

BigVine:

I just have a 55 with the HRPs. A few chewed up giant danios and a cory.
Looking to get a pair - heard they breed like rabbits...or convicts.

I have been reading your posts for a bit now. Seems like we both tried a sal pair at the same time. Mine spawned, someone ate the eggs and then the male decided to murder her. So now I am on to something a little more peaceful (hopefully).

Hehe...I know what you mean! Salvini males are super-nasty. :eek:

Be sure to keep us posted on the developments with the HRP's.
