120 Malawi Tank

[Brian_Indiana]

Great setup and fish selection.

What's the blue and yellow hap with the spots and white crest in the 3rd pic down in the 2nd group of shots? Tanzanian Otopharynx heterodon? He's pretty sick.

Thanks....No, he is a Auloncara Jacobfreibergi Otter Point. I got him from NotoriousSway from here. I bought two. One is either a beta male that is slow to show color or a female. I am holding out hope that he is male.

Great tank. I love that ob peacock! If you ever want to get rid of him, I don't live too far.

After a week in my QT, I added the new Albino Eureka Red two days ago and he isn't really mixing in with the other fish very well. He is just hanging out in the top, back corner. I will give me another day or two, before getting too concerned. I am definitely keeping an eye on him. I will post some pictures of him later today.

Took a while for my N Caudopunctatus to get used to the 10g, but he is a happy fella who patrols the top half of the tank now. The J. Transcriptus used to be real wary of him and chase at sight, but now he just chases if the Lamp gets too close to his cave. It may just need more time, but you probably know more about these type of fish than me

I tried to get some good pictures of the new Albino Eureka Red, but he is still pretty much hiding at the top.

You can spot him at the top in the center.

I had much better luck getting some shots of the big OB Peacock

Here is a close up of the Labeotropheus Trewavasae

Brian, looks great! I'm envious

We share the same interests in our stock. My collection is very similar to yours. If I could start it all over, I would go with pretty much your exact set up. I have a 150 tall, but really want a 60" 125. Looks great! And nice job on the DIY canopy!

Love the 150 tall dimensions, always loved taller tanks vs. longer ones.

Thanks dude. I have had tanks since the mid 90's and never been into canopies. Last year, I just decided to start building them. Now I will not have a show tank without one. I think it makes the tank look like furniture instead of just a tank.
