Is there anyone who can give me an in-depth guide or any general advice on keeping and breeding Honduran Redpoints?  There does not seem to be much information anywhere on these fish, apart from the same general plagiarised info.  Any advice or information would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks.

Unfortunately, I don't know of any members who have HRPs or have kept them in the past. And as you rightly say, there is not much info on them anywhere - I've just looked. Even my usual go-to site (Seriously Fish) has nothing on them.

How closely related are they to other members of the Cryptoheros genus? If they are closely related it might be worth looking at their profiles. Cryptoheros nanoluteus is on SF

I can't give you any data on the fish themselves, but there are a couple of points regarding google that may assist you. There are hits on google for "honduran red point" and for "honduran redpoint". Also, make sure that your default search parameters include "Any Country" and not just "Country: UK" (Click on "Search Tools" to change it. Also search for them using their latin name(s).

I had a glimpse at some of the entries and the suggestion seemed to be that their care is very similar to that of Convict Cichlids. To summarise, if they are still alive, they will breed like rabbits!
