My wife bought me 12 rock caves for my gift for our anniversary. They are about 4”-5” in size , had to rescape to leave a big enough area in the middle to stack all the caves in some type of formation. They get here Tuesday! Very excited !

Oh I love them , it’s the only way I’ll get fish now. I did luck out tho and they have a location (idk how many there are) 10 minutes from me so I can locally pick up or have it driven to my house for free

This is kind of what I was thinking to finish off the tank for real this time

Is this possible? I had to get rid of my 2 snow whites because they came way smaller then expected and were getting torn up. I’ve fallen in love with my yellow tail , now I found some white tail which I would love to get. Can these 2 mate?

My buddy and I are starting a new YouTube channel , will be posting all different types of videos/shorts. Mainly will be based around cichlids (he has peacocks , I have mbuna) but we will be branching out once a few other tanks are up and running. Maybe check it out! Only have one short up...

Make sure it isn’t touching anything or maybe even wrap it in a towel , I’ve seen some people do that to make it more quite, I have 3 in my 1 tank and they don’t make too much noise. It’s good to get movement on your water surface but if you turn it off while you sleep I don’t see a problem with...

Thank you 🙏

My yellow tail is loving the chewere, wondering if it thinks it’s another yellow tail that’s the opposite sex? Chasing it everywhere but never has nipped it will just swim next to it like they are schooling , then try to rub itself on it. I’m sure they are to young to mate right?

You aren’t kidding!! I left for 4 days a week or so back , came home to my favorite one gone without a trace he was about 1.5” (like most of my new ones😂) he’s been replaced by the same type. I just gotta keep them fed and happy

If this works for some people great , if not it’s ok. I don’t wana post a YouTube video

I can finally sit back and watch my tank without feeling something is missing. Some of them came a little small , but my others aren’t too big yet so I’m not too worried. Will just make sure to feed them enough to not want a midnight snack. Cobalt blue zebra x2 Snow White socolofi x2...

Different types of mbuna. And if brine shrimp aren’t the best type special food for them , what is?

Got frozen brine shrimp for all my cichlids , they love them! They eat them all within like a minute. I know people say 1 time a week for those. Is there a reason why? It’s so much easier/cleaner when I feed them the shrimp. Thoughts on this?

I love it !

Got a Jack Dempsey. Wasn’t meant to be but he’s here. They are all babies so we’ll see

Just ordered the rest of my cichlids. Very excited I’ll go pick them up on Monday. After having to leave for 4 days I came home to my lik baby elongate mbuna no where to be seen. Must of gotten eaten completely bones and all , or they got sucked up in the filter. Anyway , got another bigger one...

All mixed , unless there’s one I really like , I’ll get 2

I’m getting the rest of my mbunas. Should I get all 7 or 8 together ? Or should I do 3 or so at a time ?

Looks normal to me. Good looking fish😍

in my experience with Cory’s , females are always bigger then the males like most fish. Also hard to really know without pictures if anything is wrong

Ya I was kinda leaning that way , thank you!!

He said 2” but I think those are way bigger lol , all mine are about 1.5”

Someone offered to trade 5 convicts for my delhezi bichir. Would the convicts do ok with a tank of 6 Mbuna? (2 red zebra , 1 electric blue Johanni , 1 electric yellow , 1 aurora cichlid , and 1 yellow tail acei) i know they are Mbunas but 5 of them when i pretty much have 1 of each other. Whats...

We had to take a surprise “vacation” to my parents yesterday and we’ll be here for maybe 3 or 4 days. We’re living with My father in law at the moment , and he is sick with Covid and with our almost 2 year old son we don’t wana risk him getting sick. Now that I can’t keep an eye on them , I’m...

Yellow tail acei (finally)

I’m wanting around 15

Trying to fill my online cart at this lfs which is very handy. I want 1- 2 Rusty’s , maybe 1 or 2 cobalt blue zebras , 1 or 2 chewere elongatus and I really want a Labidochromis joanjohnsonae (textilus) they look awesome. How would they do in a tank with other more aggressive mbuna? Mainly the...
