A little over a week ago, I had a friend call me and tell me that his cichlids had fry. He only had a 55 gallon, and he didn't have anywhere to put them. He really needed to get rid of them, so he asked me if I'd take them. By the time I got them, many of them had been eaten by the fish or had died. I was able to get about 40 or so of them, and I threw them in my tank.
Many of them appear to be electric blue ahlis. Others appear to possibly be some kind of peacock. I know he had a few different kinds of cichlids in his tank, so they could be anything.
It will be interesting to see them develop, and to figure out what they actually are. I was originally going to make my tank a discus tank, but I guess I'm not going to now.
Here is my current stock:
(2) Albino Iridescent Sharks
(2) Iridescent Sharks
(1) Elephant Nose
(1) Needle Nose
(1) African Butterfly
(40?) 1/2" African Cichlid
(1) Peacock Eel
I'll post pictures when they get a little bigger. :)
