Wow I love your setup, I wish I could keep that many large new world cichlids in my tank without them killing each other.

Hi five to you. Very nice tank and I love your fish. I think Loco is the star of the show. I have to tell you that you made me laugh.
When one is going to net out a 12” Oscar, that fish will look you straight in the eye and say “IT’S ON”!
And what he means by that is me and half the water in this tank is going to be on you!

so far the only trouble i've been having is between the new green texas (the 7'' 1)and the convict they keep locking lips. theres some small bruising so far; although the tex is alot bigger the convict looks like hes kicking ass and taking names

the oscar doesn't seem fast enough to get any food but he is real active, against my better judgment threw some feeders in there (from a trusted lfs) about 3 dozen. its only a one time deal but they lasted about 20 seconds it was awesome.
i laid out the cash and bought some better food 'cichlid gold' (an upgrade from the walmart special cichlid food )

the fish look good and theres plenty of hiding spots i just hope theres not too many fights.

i think im done whit stocking any thing else would probably be pushing it.
but if any thing starts to breed i might be in trouble

update....the new green tex is just mean sob he is trying everyone short of the oscar, i guess hes not that crazy
