Hello everyone!
I've recently acquired 5 Neolamprologous Caudopunctatus "Red Fin" and they are being housed in a 30 gallon tank. I'm new to this fish, mainly to African cichlids as a whole, and I've really enjoying watching them for the past few days and look forward to attempting to breed them. The tank currently houses a baby Starlight Bushynose pleco which is helping keep the tank clean, having cleaned almost half of the back of the tank in a few days. These sure are feisty little fish, as they attacked my hand while I was cleaning the tank only a day after they were introduced. Below are a few (iPhone) pictures of their tank and if you have any ideas on decor, please comment below! I do plan on adding a few more larger rocks in the near future to help break up the areas of the tank and there are three shells buried in the sand, although I've read there prefer rocks to breed on.
