Oh, alright, I'll have a look! I am silly and completely missed that you said "in the gallery".

WendiDell said:I just started my first African Cichlid tank 9 months ago. They are a very special breed. I would miss mine if I had give them up.
May you some day have the chance to have more African Cichlids.
I loved the pics., thank you for sharing
I am now suffering from Tank envy. Yours is bigger than mine.Just started mine about 3 months ago and they are truly beautiful. I would sit in front of my cichlid tank for hours and not get tired of watching them.

I would love to have a 75 gallon Cichlid Tank
Your Cichlids are really beautiful.
Thanks, I'm sure your cichlids are as beautiful too! Eventually I will need to upgrade to a 125 gallon one when they get bigger or when it starts to get crowded in there.
WendiDell said:Thank you, I think my Cichlids are beautiful. But they are getting old enough to fight each other for a breeding spot. I have more places to hide and call their own than I have Cichlids, but for some idiotic reason they all want the same spot. They can, and have done some real damage to each other.Their wide mouths really grab hold and just shred each other.
I didn't want to just stack big rocks in my tank. I like color, so I used colorful plants and caves and a few rocks to isolate section of my tank. I have 4 males and 10 caves for them to call their own, they still fight on occasion.
Hopefully I will not have problems like that. I think I have all males except for the electric yellow lab that is holding according to some of the members that have seen the picture.

WendiDell said:I found this picture while doing research. It's a great close up of a Cichlids mouth. It's a bit of a shock, but you will see why a Cichlid can do some major damage to another fish.
Ain't that the truth. Those are some scary teeth.If I were a fish I surely don't want to be at the receiving end of those teeth. LOL!
