75g Looking to start African Tank

Did you ask Dave if these are compatible and if they will cross breed?

He seems to think it ok. But subbing the Piebold for the “red flank”

Getting there,

got three fish in , two Synodontis and Bristlenose.

got the 2 species of Victorians coming week after Christmas with marbled syno and albino bristle nose.

gonna get three more of the smaller fake holey rock.... I dunno , got break it up a little...

3 hours ?

got the three Synos and Bristlenose in there, did w/c yesterday...

Thanks all for your input on this tank!

All settled in! The smallest albino bristle nose may be in danger as he was getting picked at by some of the group...

Got the hospital / overflow for problem fish / baby tankready for any issues in the main tank.

know they are fake.... dang holey rock so pricey...

I think I may do another one of these in the other 75, with those granite rocks with holes in them and the black/mix Cichlid sand....

Some of the group, these guys eagerly eat anything.....

Looking forward to seeing the colors come in!

Update :

Sadly had a Piebold jumped, since covered the gaps....I suppose it was one of the four males, maybe less bickering...

Debating adding more of this formed Petco holey rock.

What’s the opinion? More = better or too cluttered?

Maybe experiment moving the rocks around. Laying some pieces on its side, in such a way as to hide the base from view. Make the hardscape more random. Perfect imperfection.
Its easier said than done. Lol.
