I started out with just a couple pieces and would usually just take em out to get the gravel cleaner in there and clean. I now have a good bit of rock in there and I'm wondering how often I should take them...

    Never had a 100% ID on him yet

    So I've put this guy up a couple months ago and never got a positive ID. His colors have lightened up a lot and figured I'd try again. He used to be solid black but not its looking dark blue. These were pics today This last pic of him is from about 3 months ago

    New Cichlid Tank Advice?

    Some blue ones I have are the cobalt blue and a johanni. Cobalt is like a powder blue and the johanni is dark blue with light blue stripes pretty cool looking( my profile pic) . I like the rustys they are a golden brown then when they get bigger they get a purle hue to them. Aka lavender cichlid

    Polystigma acting weird

    So the last couple of days I haven't been seeing much of him/her ( cant tell due to all the spots ). It's been just hanging out on the bottom and hiding. It is usually one of the more aggressive ones and that's why I'm concerned. Hasn't came up for food recently and I was looking at it today...
