Show Us The Different Species of African Rift Lake Cichlids..

Eh I got bored. After keeping him in the q-tank for a week I decided to move him to the large tank... He is 8 inches. I took over 160 photos... here are a little over 20 of them...

So was feeding... and well his color has already gotten a lot dark... Then I noticed he was flaring up a ton so I got to taking photos again. Well it looks like my Protomelas sp. "Spilonotus Tanzania" (King of the tank... though a gentle king that no one dares touch) and him are having a semi spat... No mouth locking just flaring up at each other. Sadly I couldn't time my pictures right since they would always do it farther away from me and fish would get in the way. But well you can get a flavor of what is going on.

(no flash, like most of the ones before):

I took a few pics this morning because i added a couple venustus babies to the 125gqal tank and hoped for the best.. and so far everything is going smooth.. theres quite a few babies in there already but you know it is always a risk adding the new guys..

Ok so a few more pictures...

So my albino Eureka Reds are finally starting to show a little color... though it is dang hard to photo these guys since I don't have a good light on the tank. But as of now it looks like I have 2 males, 2 females...

And then some shots of other tanks... my 75 has gotten a little crowded.

(This is a female...)
