    jewel cichlid version of "john & kate + 108"

    Hehehe...never watched the show, but was inspired by how much she cranked out. The camera is a Olympus Camedia 5050 Zoom.

    Might Have A Problem

    Until you give it away, maybe you want to increase the number of hiding spots in your tank so the other fish have protection and a quick getaway.

    Thank you. This is the third or fourth batch of fry since I got these fish at the end of April. I think one of the parents just killed my oldest male johanni. :(

    Thank you! This couple has been producing almost a new batch of fry every week since I got them. Eventually I will need to try and raise a few babies.

    Algae eater's wanted !!

    If you don't mind them getting a little bit aggressive down the road, try the Chinese algae eaters. They stay pretty active and won't get lazy/depend on algae wafers as they get older.

    What would you put in this?

    easy... it depends on the mood music. If you play some Barry White you probably will have a lot of success. If you play Marilyn Manson don't expect a whole heck of a lot of breeding going on. <grin>

    Best way to change substrate?

    That will be a fun project if you own a large tank. Here are a few options: (a)If the tank is a decent size, you may be able to do a water change and remove most of the gravel with a wet/dry vac at the same time. Just be careful about what you are sucking up. (b)Use a colander/pasta strainer...

    Please help identify new family members.

    The first pic (assuming it is dead since you laid in out) looks like a Sciaenochromis ahli aka Electric Blue Haplochromis since it has a gold lower fin and the white stripe along the top fin. That would of been a gorgeous fish.

    Two more unknown african cichlids

    I agree the juvenile has potential to be the only remaining sunshine in my tank. It's the big bulky grey/gold one that has me baffled. Must be an african lake trout...<grin>
