Aquarium Advice Addict
Sooooo, here I am with a tank that's been Siting for 6 months brand new. I got tired of looking at an empty tank so here is my plan. MBUNAS! (thanks to some very helpful members here) My stock list will look like this-
All species will be at a 1M/3F ratio
-Tropheops sp. Elongatus broadzulu
-Labidochromis Caeruleus (Lions Cove)
-Iodotropheus sprengerae
-Cynotilapia Mbamba
-Cynotilapia afra Lion's Cove
-Pseudotropheus elongatus chailosi
For filtration, ill be running x2 AC-110s which should suffice.
I'll be using just normal PFS and I still have to get some rocks for hiding and what not. This is my first African tank so I will accept any advice related of course! Tips before I get started are welcome too or just follow along its gonna be a fairly slow build but I'm not rushing this one.
So far all I have is the tank and light. I need the following soon before I start my cycle.
Filters- x2 AC-110s
Heater- what's a decent wattage? I may do a few of the small ones that I can fit in the filters to hide them.
Rocks- maybe 60-80lbs
Sand- PFS of course
Water circulation- will I need any power heads?
Am I missing anything?
