I posted pics of two mbuna that I have in my tank (on another forum) asking for ID. The blue/black fish was thought to be a Johnnie and the black/white was thought to be an Auratus... both very aggressive from what I have been told.
After further research, I think that they are actually a Maingano and a parallelus.
So, what I'm trying to find out is, are Mangano and parallelus relatively peaceful mbuna? (I realize this is relative and mbuna are aggressive).
The reason that I am as concerned as I am is because several weeks ago when I stocked my tank I made the mistake of listening to the sales guy at the fish store who told me that I could put frontosa in with my mbuna. While I will rehome them if it becomes necessary, so far all is well and I'm trying to keep the most peaceful mbuna possible to avoid problems if at all possible. Attempting to post pics.
