Okie doke! I apologize, from the info given I thought you went and bought them all willy nilly! Glad to hear we still have responsible fish keepers

No need to apologize at all. I fully understand an agree with you 100%. But yes I did ask a ton of questions before I picked them up.

It just makes for GREAT conversation when everyone is always like what is that and oh wow what is this! Or holy ...... What is that!!

Does a different lake really have this affect? If the person were talking about is a noobie, then would they know your tank and stock is semi-unique?

Cool fish, i really like how the are striped, but dark colors instead of really bright!!

No, what I was saying was The has more then just Cichlid's. So when there looking at the tank and see something OTHER then a Cichlid it's more of a conversation piece not that my fish alone aren't a nice view. Didn't mean they would know different lakes. But it's cool to have different kinds of fish in the mix IMO makes for a very interesting tank. I mean to a certain degree. I would go putting a goldfish in the tank.

Can I ask why they were rehomed? I know nothing about cichlids, but they seemed as If
They'd do fine In your tank.

The size they get 6-12" inches is what I'm being told. They were easy to catch. I'm going to do more research on them and they will be there of I decide to get them back. Most of my fish will top out at 4" and it's a 75g and I'm overstocked so a 12" monster wouldn't be a healthy choice IMO.

Oh ok, haha probably not.

 

[Convict2161]

Yeah figured it was best. They have a better home and I got a credit which I'll use for sure. I wanna get a few more Botia loaches.

I was wondering why you was adding more fish to that tank with all the problems you've been having. I know its hard try looking into getting a bigger tank.
