I have a tank full of cryptoheros coatepeque around 1" that are ready to find new homes. They are from the convict group, and are endemic to Lake Coatepeque in El Salvador. Their CRC link is:

There's not much info on them on the web, as they are practically non-existent in the hobby. I got my breeders from Sam Santangelo, who went to El Salvador and collected their parents himself several years ago.
I have found them to be average when it comes to breeding aggression, and are currently keeping my group of 2 males and 4 females in a 55 with several other target fish to keep their attention away from killing each other. I haven't had any losses in the tank once the 2 males decided to occupy opposite ends of the tank.
Looking for $3 each or 6 for $15. Would also consider trades. Pick up at my place in Frederick or delivery to the meeting on the 19th. Picks of the parents below:
