Just wanted to share this. The aggressive temperament of this particular Electric Blue lake malawai happened to mesh very well with this Tigar Oscar. The Electric blue is kind of a jerk. Took out a couple smaller similar region cichlids. I can't tell the sex of fish well. I assume the Electric Blue to be male and perhaps my male to female ratio was off balance. However the tiger seems to buddy up with the E blue perfectly.
To answer the assumed questions I anticipate will be asked. It's a 120g tank with double sump overflow 45g + 45g. (Barrels plumbed together) 4 12×12 filter pads with egg crate. 20# lava rock. Big bag of carbon hanging in a barrel. Home made overflow siphon and home made return plumbing. 1300gph home depot waterfall pump. Home depot sand. Home made led light strip
Stock list
Electric Blue
Tiger Oscar
Chinese algae eater
6 silver dollars
4 tiger barbs
2 smaller electric yellow cichlid
2 Bala Shark.
I understand the standardized stocking rules. And size of full grown species. This tank is amazingly enjoyable for my sanity established nearly a year and never had a spot of algae once. If overgrowth does happen id love an upgrade. Also have a 40g angelfish tank. And babysitting my mom's 36g bow glowfish tank
Hopefully you enjoy the video link
