Hi guys,
Just asking for some input on my upcoming tank.
I currently have an empty 240g, i'm looking to keep the two species mentioned in the subject title with other tanganyikan's.
I would just like to know if it is safe to keep tropheus with these two fish, also what other fish can i keep with them.
My final question is about the aquascaping, should i use lots of rocks or leave the tank fairly bare?

Thanks

Kilesas are very shy and jumpy. I think all the commotion from the Tropheus would stress them out and itll be hard to see any breeding behavior or color for that matter. They need space and a quiet enviroment.

here's a vid of mine courting

Can frontosa or julidochromis be kept with the two fish mentioned, also has anyone got info on tank setup for these fish?
 
How does this rough stock list look to you guys,

- Group of Enantiopus sp "kilesa" OR Cyathopharynx Foai
- Group of Ophthalmotilapia nasuta "Kipili" OR Ophthalmotilapia ventralis
- Group of Julidochromis regani "Kipili"
- Small group of Neolamprologus leleupi
- Trio of Neolamprologus mustax
- Group of 15-20 Cyprichromis
- Small group of Neolamprologus buescheri
- Small group of Neolamprologus sexfasciatus
- Pair of Eretmodus cyanostictus "Kasanga"
- Group of 'Lamprologus' brevis
- Altolamprologus calvus - Not sure how many

Feel free to post your opinions and ideas
