Hey folks, I've been researching a lot of equipment, but I wanted to get some tailored suggestions on here for setups on my 150 gallon African Cichlid tank. This tank is current setup, but I'm redoing it and changing from gravel to sand. Tank: 150 gallon, 72in long, 30in tall, 18in deep...

Yes an airpump and sometype of airstone.

Not sure about the wet/dry but I believe the HOB usually require you to get a screen to go over the intake so that a lot of the sand is not sucked in. If you don't have one you might want to look into it.

I can't believe how expensive those Black Aro's are going for. Apparentley they are having trouble breeding them and the prices are skyrocketing. My brother just sold his which I believe was over a foot long for $300. That's some serious bucks.

Could be Voodo, not sure. I guess I'm just gonna have to play the waiting game. As long as he doesn't start beating up on anybody he can stay. Thanks for looking it up!!

Well I can't find any info on the Pseudotropheus Sandaracinos so I have no idea, and about the cross I guess that's a possibility. He could definitely be cross between the one shown below and something else. I guess time will only tell. http://malawimayhem.com/profile_show.php?id=319 [/url]

It's becoming a man hunt now. I asked if anyone knew what kind of cichlid this was in another topic but it got just too long so I'm making a new one just about this fish. Was wondering if anyone could help me out and tell me what kind of cichlid this is. The girl thought it might be a Ice Blue...

Well I tried a couple of methods such as herding with two nets, luring with food and trying to swipe him up with a big net but my Kenyi cichlid was too smart for me. I even tried taking a fish bag (the ones you get them in) and tied some food in the bottom bag with a string and then took a...

Probably a good idea. I had a helluva time because my tank is so rocky. I'll take a picture of my trap, that should get a laugh.

Hah never thought of that. Will try that next time. Instead I caught him by setting up a trap. It was pretty funny actually, I felt like a great fisherman trying to bring in the great white. I bought a little breeder tank you hang on the side and I rigged it up so the top hinged and the top...

Well now all I have to do is catch him and I'm finding that extremely hard. I've been trying to bait him to the top with food and snatch him like I did the zebra but if I miss I have to wait to the next feeding. I'm still trying to sex my cobalts and lab's right now. Is it out of the norm if I...

Well I looked at the Red Zebra's eye and it is much worse now. His whole eye is blue and he looks a bit off at times. I'm bringing him back tomorrow along with the lombardi because he has been chasing fish around and it concerns me that it will get worse.
