600 gallon ca cichlid tank

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
i really have been slacking on picture/video update and even updating my blog :(

a few fish grew really fast and seem to have stop (trimac, xilo, carpintas) others didn't look like they grew at all but when compared to older pics they have all grown a bit, the tank is starting to look a bit crowded and i might need to rehome some but i really like them all :(

not the best pic, will take more and a video this weekend, i'm really loving this tank though

thanks guys, tank is 8 x 4 x 30" high (600 gallons)

i tried to take some better pics today, about the 10 month mark tank has been set up

argentea male, still the boss of the tank although he gets chased away from the red devil/xilo area when he ventures there

my favorite fish and fastest grower, trimac, he's mellowed out but still aggressive especially during feeding time

black belt and heterospilia i think squaring off, they pretty much posture but never really fight like most of the viejas

labiatus and xilo seem to have paired off, anyone comes to their area and they are extremely aggressive otherwise not too bad
