-bender- Posted October 30, 2011 Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 depends on their mood, tank lighting, back ground etc but the sumbu / black pearls are the ones your talking about Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shon982 Posted October 30, 2011 Report Share Posted October 30, 2011 Altolamprologus Calvus Black are known as black pearls (a particular variant of them) not the sumbu Sumbus change from being pretty white to quite dark from exactly what bender said Mine are looking very dark grey at the moment, all over but this is their in between colour from white and dark grey Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
