I will try to get a picture today, she is very shy but maybe I can get one when she comes out to eat

Hi, I have a 135 gallon with various mbuna and a few tanganyika cichlids. I was wondering if anybody here keeps maingano, we have a mangaino which we assume to be a male. We also have a female, who is albino. All the normal blue area are yellow, the black areas are white, and she has red eyes...

Good to know. I have heard some people freak out over this topic. They say we should let them spit naturally, well we don't breed them in a natural environment, I don't think the fry can have a high death rate if left in a main tank

I was wondering if anybody else here strips their African Cichlids. I have a 135 gallon, and the fish have just started spawning within the last month or so. 2 days ago, I stripped a female Kenyi, and two female Acei (all are mbuna). Today I stripped yet another female Acei, and caught up a...

Thanks for the help guys! I think i will use java fern, amazon sword, and floating water moss. I think i will change the stock to one leaf fish, a pair of rams and 6 cories.

So I think I have decided on species, and now I need ot know what species of plants I should get. The tank will be stocked with a pair of rams or other small SA cichlid, 2-3 african leaf fish, and a small group of catfsih (possibly corries, 2-3) They all need similiar conditions. My concern...

Okay, after doing some reading I was thinking a heavily planted tank with a pair of small SA cichlids (apisto or rams) and a few leaf fish. Both species are semi aggressive, and both require acidic water. what do you think?

I would have no problem switching it out. I was thinking maybe a colony of pearl occellatus? What do you guys think? I know they like living in shells. Or maybe african leaf fish

I have never heard of them.. are they similiar to a blue ram? They look very nice!

Thanks for the welcome!

I currently have a 29 gallon long, it has about an 1.5 inches of substrate (crushed coral sand) and various decorations I can use. Well it has a blue gourami, and a siilver molly. I am debating what species to get. I was thinking of doing a community of varios gouramis or mollies. But have had...
