ACMESkydiver 0 #4 June 12, 2005 I think it's 55 gal... All South African Cichlids. We used to have about 10 fish in there when they were all babies, but the 'army fish' (we don't remember the type; it is a cichlid and was tan colored w/dark brown splotches, so it looked kinda like desert camoflauge ) killed them all but herself, a johanni fish, and the pucker-sucker. The Blue Johanni and the army fish are both females we're thinkin'...they have opposite corners of the tank completely dug out for their 'nests'. I think they killed all the male fish because they were annoying them... Um, somebody otta tell 'em they won't be having babies anytime soon... ~Jaye Do not believe that possibly you can escape the reward of your action.

Skolls081102 0 #8 June 13, 2005 Right now I only have a 33-gal Hex tank with 5 Fancy (or whatever they are called ) Goldfish. You know the ones with all the wierd colors, and big fan tails....anyway, I just set it up for my 19 month old son, because he likes "feesh" as he calls them. I have a 55 gal that I want to set up, but it's got crazy dead fish vibes in it. It was definitley the "Tank of Death"- didn't matter what I had in it- completley docile fish would up and eat other fish, aggressive fish got eaten by other fish- it was a big mess. I always kept complete records on what fish I had in the tank. When I wanted to buy another fish, I brought the list with me to the store. I would ask what fish were good/bad to go with what I had in the tank. If the employee told me "This fish would be great in your tank. No one will eat it, and it wont eat your other fish"- Armageddon would break out in my tank. If they told me "Dont buy that fish- it will kill your fish, or your fish will kill it"- the tank was a vision of peace. SO if and when I set it up, I think Im just going to put one kind of fish in there. It will make it easier for me. Well, I guess I've bored you all enough for tonight- The sole intention, is learning to fly.Condition grounded, but determined to try.Can't keep my eyes from the circling skies.Tongue tied and twisted, just an Earth bound misfit.

SniperCJ 0 #9 June 13, 2005 100 gal with African Cichlids (mainly Malawan) and a 48 flat back hex with smaller Tanganicans. Been keeping Cichlids for about 17 years. Had a BIG Frontosa but he died last year. Had him for many years. Beautiful fish! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ChileRelleno 0 #13 June 13, 2005 Frontosa are definitely beautiful fish! I researched some of the African & Madagascar Cichlids and arrived at the conclusion that if I ever keep any of either. from africa it would be Frontosa in a 200+gal, withh atleast five (5) fish (1 male and 4 female). From Madagascar it would be Paratilapia polleni or Paratilapia bleekeri, basically the same fish just that one has small and the other large spots. P. polleni is gorgeous, and is probably my favorite and most likely being as I could house 'em in the 75gal, no problemo. Link to P. polleni pics, http://www.jjphoto.dk/fish_archive/aquarium/paratilapia_polleni_x.jpg Link to Frontosa pics, http://members.cox.net/ron86/front.jpg Just a note to those who are clueless, these are not little fish! These two species will easily exceed a foot in length... And have major personalities .

PrairieDoug 0 #17 June 13, 2005 I have a 45g bowfront FW inhabited by most of the usual community tank suspects. The real stars of the setup are my live plants. I love the look they create and how they promote biofiltering & oxygenation. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

LilZilla 2 #19 June 13, 2005 Just got started about a month ago with my little 10 gal. tank. Right now I have: 1 rainbow shark 3 x-ray tetra 3 tiger barbs 2 green tiger barbs 1 cory cat 2 unkown cats I never knew fish could be so adictive. I started out with just a few fish cause its only a 10 gal. tank, now I'm up to twelve fish. Planning on getting a 55 gal. tank in a month or two to give these little guys some room.

okalb 78 #20 June 13, 2005 I have a 150 Gal tank that used to be a salt water community tank. Right now it is an African Cichlid tank. I just bought a new wet dry and I am about to get rid of the cichlids and convert it back to salt water. I plan to put in a trigger a puffer and a unch of assorted tangs. Maybe a gobie or two as well. -OKTime flies like an arrow....fruit flies like a banana Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
