Thanks this pic doesn’t do them justice much more blue than showing here.
Yep they are Mbuna from Lake Malawi - will keep an eye out for the comp!
Mbuna means rock fish in Malawi
nice and busy in your house atm
Its been really tough to get enough space to get there as I've had to do the big water change, needed to fix the jump guard (still not perfect but will do) and theres always just been something to stop me having the time to do the drive and get the fish. I'm really happy with these but... there is an LFS near me that has been getting better and better recently and they get some nice Mbuna in (I think from one of the really good breeders near me - Tony's African Cichlids) and I'm tempted to see what they can get for me as it would mean I can get more fish in sooner than later.Very nice Wills, glad youve managed to start stocking your tank. I so nearly went to wharf today aswel. Big fish lad mentioned he was going and just done a video of the stock so im gutted i didnt now lol
Take a few more shots of them for us when they have settled in
Congrats on your new arrival btw
Does look a lovely tone of blue to them tbf and they will only get better once settled
They are doing really well! Interestingly I kept the heater off for quite a while on this tank and only had it on for maybe the last month (really thought I was going to get fish sooner than this) and the roots have reached the substrate now, I've got flowers coming through as well. I'll get a full tank shot tonight when the lights are on.Does look a lovely tone of blue to them tbf and they will only get better once settled
How are the peace lilies doing?
Think yellow and blue go really well together so something like Msobo Magunga would look cool.
really hate the heater I have in here... I want to get 2 smaller ones so I can put it either end and have them vertical in the corners maybe in a few months.
