Been around aquariums for a long time, but just getting back into it and starting off with a 55g Cichlid (SA) tank. Those are some angry little suckers! Do not mess with their territory!
I started off with a little fin rot and Melafix'ed that, then moved on to ich and cooked the water for awhile and hit it with Quick Cure, then a sweet algea bloom that clouded the tank, and a weird burst of ammonia that came back every time I fed them frozen brine shrmp. I put some shrimp in a glass to test the water, and sure enough, massive ammonia. No idea if that's normal, but still re-learning about all these things. Hey, it sounds like I'm well on my way into the fun! lol
I've posted up some tank pics. It runs dual filters, a Magnum 350, and a Tetra 60 primarily to keep a bio system running full time.
