Here are my Cichlids, I have a total of 11 in a 30g long.
#1 is Skwisgaar my yellow lab (Lion's Cove II)
#2 is Snizzy Snazz, might be of Tropheops...
#3 is Toki one of two Labidochromis Textilis
#4 is Blammymataz, might be of Tropheops...
#5 & #6 are Bonnie & Clyde, I believe they are Pseudotropheus Scofoli
#7 is Mr. Selatcia, might be of Tropheops...
#8 is Pickles, I have no idea yet what he is
#9 is Rockzo the Rock and Roll Clown-Phish, I believe he is Tropheops "Boadzulu" (Makokola)
#10 is Nathan Explosion, the other Lab. Textilis

Thanx for the compliments, Liz.
I took those pix within the last week, after putting them all in within the last three weeks. Just took a look at Blammymataz and he has started to really show the vertical striping. They have great color potential. I love this time in their lives, for their changing colors make the time go by a little easier. I can't wait till they mature.

the way you take care of them they will grow fast so enjoy them as babies too... so much fun to watch them grow.... they are so full of color now...i can only imagine the color later....

Nice Alunocara baenschi, he's beautiful! I wanted to get one of those for my tank, but I guess I'll wait till I can afford a bigger tank..

Red Devil, I've been searching cichlid data bases, and found a possible match to Rockzo... It's possible he's of the Cynotilapia afra (Msobo)....
