Cichla Tank Update

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
dirty nice stock
 
bass are looking superb! lovin' the NGT, too! :drool:
 
thanks everybody! :)

i used to keep 2 larger (16") tems in the same tank until they outgrows it so i had to move them to my 350g pond to make some space.. the NGT is around 9" right now and he's always hungry lol

i'm trying to get some other tankmates but i'm not sure yet what to pick. my candidates are:

1. kelberi
2. zulies (need more $$$)
3. armatus
4. more rays
5. dorado

which one do you guys think suits nice? :)

My top three

Kelberi f1 would be top of my order because for the most part they can be or already are pellet trained. The only issue is growing them out.

Zullies are sweet, hard to appreciate unless you have them because most cameras have a zullie blue filter on them so you usually don't get the full color on picts. But like sailfish they light up when feeding and mating. very cool tiger stripes too.

Rays give a tank bling especially if you have people seeing it often. Just something about them that are really neat to watch. I just bought my first motoro a couple days ago and after some new tank syndrome, all is super cool.

man thanks for the awesome response! seems like we have the same top list on this, only i have to save up some more to afford number one and two. :D

in the meantime maybe i'm getting a male for my female ray, either a motoro too or other type of ray.. you're right rays have a very interesting and adorable personalities i love to see them feed its so funny and cool!

how big is your new ray?
