Great tank, and those are my favorite "cyps"! I lost my colony due to a bad water change (water company added a ton of chemicals and sent the notice 3 days afterward) :-(

Wow nice! I had some cyprichromis before but got rid of them due to their aggression. Soon I'll get my tang tank up got some benthochromis tricoti's, gold head compressiceps, kilesas, and some fucifers.

Aggressive cyps? Wow, that must have been an exceptional group. I would think they are on the same level of Benthochromis regarding aggression.

No, not at all. If you have a 72 inches aquarium femeles will always find some quite places
