Lets See Your South/central American Cichlids>>>>>

Thanks. It's the fish stocking list I've wanted since I got the tank first set up, but kept missing by a species or two and then completely revamping.

It's a 46g bowfront. I haven't gotten any full tank pics since I re-did it this week. I keep toying with the idea of swapping it out with a 55g, but just never get around to it.
 
Here's a whole tank shot - sorry for the poor quality, it's hard to get a good tank shot during the day, esp when there's a window opposite the tank!

:D i love colour, the orange two are in a breeding tank at moment and it looks so dull without them.

Cichlids have defo given me MTS they are so addictive :wub: i'm just setting up a malawi tank but also toying on a dwarfs tank with just apistogrammas and rams, there are so many lovely ones, and one day i want a madagascan setup :drool: but need a big tank and not sure if i'll cope with all those water changes
Once you have one cichlid you want them all :lol:
this is my apisto's with their eggs

yeah, I have a spare 25gl that I'm considering doing something with and was thinking of keeping some Kribs in it...'tis very adictive this fish business!!

I wish my Apisto's would spawn, they go through all the courtship but nothing ever comes of it :sad: I blame it on my Yoyo's.....

Kribs are awesome. I had a pair of kribs in my tank for a couple of years and they spawned practically every month! They were in a community tank, so most of the fry got eaten, but it was always so exciting to see the new fry when the parents first brought them out. Breeding kribs are so pretty. Even in my 46g, I couldn't keep any other bottom dwellers b/c the kribs were so territorial.
 
i dont have them anymore but they were real nice when i did have the big shoal of 14 :shifty:
