NyteGTI said:Haha yea those colors are close. What hardy said is 100% true. Keep it consistent and you'll be fine DON'T put chemicals in to alter the ph.
He's also right I forgot about the different color schemes. Can't wait to see what you do. But remember don't put 10-15 mbunas in all at once otherwise you'll cycle all over and you don't want to be losing anymore hair Haha. Start with 6-8(a trios or foursome of 2 different species) and then build from there. They're fun little fish. My male kenyi loves to kiss the tank when my I put my finger on it. Ill grab a vid of my tank and show you if I can get him to do it on command.
NyteGTI said:oo take pics of the store so i can see!!! Ill be up there soon to get some more tell your friend im probably looking at the CB zebras & red zebras if he's got them.
Oh man I didn't see this until now. But I did take some shots of his personal tank in the store.
I think Male Kenyi(yellow) & CB Zebras

Also remember now you have to watch out for malawi bloat so don't over feed & don't feed igh protein foods since most of these guys are herbivores or omnivores
