Hey Hobby5, The rocks i used are Lava Rock from my local FS. They used the same rocks in their African Cichlid Display. They are a bit rough but not sharp. And thanks for the info, though i have kept tropical fish before, this is my first foray into the cichlid world. I thought the aggression...

Here is a video of my tank. Hopefully it has enough nooks and cranny s: http://youtu.be/YWGehtFPTA0

I   I have intricate rock work, with many hiding spaces. Already tho, they chase each other over more than half the tank, inside caves and around rocks. Im afraid if they were older they would be relentless. 

Considering this, what can I do to lower the aggression and maintain balance in the tank?

just realized i posted this twice. Im so sorry! My internet connection caused a hiccup and i didnt think it went thru :/

Hey guys,   So I have a 55 Gal with the following stock:   Yellow-Tailed Acei x7 Yellow Lab x  7 Demonasi x1 Rusties x7 All fish are juveniles,the largest fish are 3 inches max at best.   The rusties are by far the most aggressive fish in the tank. They chase other fish, who come even remotly...

Hey guys,   So I have a 55 Gal with the following stock:   Yellow-Tailed Acei x7 Yellow Lab x  7 Demonasi x1 Rusties x7   The rusties are by far the most aggressive fish in the tank. They chase other fish, who come remotly close, dig and by far are extremely aggressive towards their own...

  Ah thank you so much! :) I was worried they may harm my future fish. I think ill leave them to be for now.  Thanks alot for your help mate!

Hi guys!, So im in the last stage of my fishless cycle, Actually im fairly certain the cycle is done. Got used filters from a friend of mine, and threw in a shrimp 2 weeks ago. My test kit is unfortunately in the mail but Ill be picking it up tomorrow. Just a background: my tank's substrate is...

Thanks! :D I bought those rocks for 1.99 a pound. Here's the kicker though, most of those rocks weigh around a pound at most! Most of the smaller ones are less than a pound!! It's honestly strange picking up a large rock, bigger than your hand, only to find it lighter than a tennis ball. As for...

Thanks! Here's my tank atm. No fish, still has to cycle for a few more weeks, but hopefully i have a lot of hiding spaces.  Here are some pics you can take a look at!   Really hoping thats enough hiding spaces. the rocks on the right hand side were a pain to make sure it wouldnt topple but I...

Wow i love that fish. ironically enough, i had a picture of that catfish that i saw swimming in a premade fishtank and was just about to ask for an ID but you beat me to it! Im personally inclined towards the synodontis longirostris, And thanks for the ID Getitsahn, its defintaly a...

I found some fish that look verrry similar.  http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y166/stnick80/_DSC0131.jpg similar to that, infact, exactly the same except a much more pronounced grey body, like this fish...

Apologies for the spelling error. Yes i meant pseudotropheus socolofi. >_< Though iv kept other tropical fish, this is my first foray into the cichlid world! I did some more research on the chilumba and your right. strangly enough that was one of the fish reccomended by the store employee there...

Hey you have helped me! I was kind of iffy on the cories so thanks for that! I'm sorry about the fish names, i wrote down the names the pet store had. I have trouble identifiying haps from mbuna's. :/

Hey guys! I have an empty 55 Gal, Still going through cycling at the moment however i went to the petstore and put down a list of fish I liked and which id love to keep in there. I tried to make sure alot of the fish that i picked were already stocked togeather at the store.   Pearly White Zebra...

Beautiful fish. Any chance we can get a look at your tank? It looks great!

Intereseting...a university here is also doing the exact same bargain...

hey kribenis12, You don't happen to be going to UTM are you??

yea but still, i dont think im quite ready for that kind of care and maintainence. Just gonna try and stick with mbuna's :P

sorry guys, my dad said he doesn't want to fill it with mduna's or any freshwater fish. he wants it salt water >__> even though i told him there expensive & sensitive, but hes the one paying forthe tank so... Ah well, u cant have everything :(

i see, so no Oscars for me. okay. umm... What type of mbuna would u recommend stocking it with?

Some 55gal's are going pretty cheap around here, so before i get em, i was wondering if this stock is suitable for a standard rectangular 55Gallon(US) red oscar, jack dempsey, cobalt blue cichlid, yellow lab, (or will it get bullied? ) pleco, Pleco can be outsted out to make room for other...

gotta be the ol' wabbit fo me!

ahhhh, i remember back in the day i would run home from school to see the next digimon episode. too bad they dont run them anymore :( Dont know why, they were so much more better then pokemons. And thier digivolvs looked way more cooler. Not a "retro" show but still, its old for meh :P...

even if it was a fake fish, it doesn't make it any less tacky XD

Im sure the fish would have a long and peaceful life in this tacky fish"tank". http://www.amazon.com/Adult-Cheetah-Gold-B...283&sr=8-42
