the tank shot
the rockwork is on all three sides
right now am doing water changes every three days, as the filter i ordered hasn't come yet and the fish came earlier than, and getting tangs here is quite difficult

here are a few pics of my fish

The Julido's look to me like Transcriptus and Marlieri.. nice photos.. yeah you were reading my mind on the Calvus..

I have a 120gal Tang tank with lelupi, mustax, caudopunctatus, Julido's, calvus, comps and cylindricus all seem fine for me.. provide enough rock retreats..

My stock list for my 120gal

4 N. Mustax
6 N. Lelupi
5 A. Calvus
10 A. Comp's
6 Caudopunctatus
3 J. Dickfieldi
4 J. Ornatus
4 J. Marlieri
3 N. Cylindricus
6 Synodontis Multipunctatus

Yes i know this is a lot of Tangs for my 120gal Community Tanganyika setup i do weekly 50% water changes and filter maint monthly and all aggression is driven towards each of their own species well except the Lelupi and the Mustax which can not get along but they have enough room to flee and plenty of rockwork..

get some synos when the tank is established. petricola are the best..

Great shots!!! I'm trying to get a 20 out of my parents just for some multis, but they don't seem to be budging, so I might try and fit a couple in my 10.

Oh, and BTW, you might want to use sand rather than gravel. That's what i've heard

nice!!!!!!!!
post some pics
i might get some calvus and cyprichromis in a few days
get some synos when the tank is established. petricola are the best..u don't find good synos here
the only commonly available synos are eupterus and the occelifer, but the occellifer is too big, all four of the occellifer i have are atleast 6", and the eupterus are bigger

Great shots!!! I'm trying to get a 20 out of my parents just for some multis, but they don't seem to be budging, so I might try and fit a couple in my 10.
i have seen multis around here, but with hobbyists who don't want to sell

Oh, and BTW, you might want to use sand rather than gravel. That's what i've heardi am using sand, you didn't see all the pics i guess:D

Oh sorry, I forgot how small these tangs are and i guess in the pics, the sand looks a lot bigger.
