They had 4 dems at the store but 2 were extremely small and i didnt want to put them in my tank with the bigger fish.
 
Awesome! I went to petco which is like 45 miles away and they are ordering me a couple yellow tail acei! And I know what you mean a couple of my demsoni were really small and the poor things get bullied so bad by the bigger ones
 
Acei are great fish. They like to school and swim across the tank. You should get 5+

Same here, I'm starting to think mbuna is the African word for "psychopath". I have 6 mixed in a 60 gallon tank and it's like an insanity ward in there. One day calm sedated and peaceful, the next it's fight club. It's a six way tie for biggest punk. I have an LED remote and each time I change the color it's a different hierarchy between them... They are young, must be the fish version of drunk 19 year old, male college students...
 
That's funny...my kids were watching "Finding Nemo" last nite and I was like how come that tank is all friendly and happy and mine is a battle ground of a bloodsport[emoji23] [emoji23]

Yeah I have 4 now...but I can't add just one so I will have to get atleast 3...I just hope it will be okay bcuz they get the msuli acei at petco, which are blue and mine are purple
 
Well heres hoping haha... either way theyll be a nice addition to the tank.
I had the dark blue ones you have and i think id rather the msuli cause i could barely see the acei when i had them
 
Decided with these new fish, its about time to move around the tank... i dread these times as i have a tall tank, and im not tall and my arms do not fit in the opening either... hahaha

Awesome! It looks great! And yeah I know what u mean...I redid mine the other nite and it was like a 3hr job...I decided to split up the gangs a little and have 2 piles of rocks one on each end..lol1487096516051.jpg
 
I really like how your tank looks! I want to redo mine with new decor and such but what you see in my tank has cost me at least $150-$200 so its hard to justify restarting...
 
Yeah I figured that...I lucked out...the only thing I paid for in my tank was the plant and the little rock ledge I just bought that gives the tank dimension...all of my rock I got at a local landscaping Co and they hardly charged me anything
