Mixed Africans
Just under 100US gals, mostly Malawi - and a couple of Tanganykan. Have started adding a few wild caughts since I last posted- you can get unusual and interesting fish this way, but I always feel unsure wether its cruel or not - they seem happy and have coloured well - I add lots of cichlid minerals etc to help replicate the water in the lake but if I think the fish are suffering in any way I wont add any more. As always my tank is crowded but it seems to work for me - I do several water changes a week and also bullying is kept to a minimum. Also keep mostly males to avoid fish becoming aggressive as they try to mate, they also become very coloured as they compete against one another, though downside is shy fish can go brown.
