Dream African

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
i would have a really huge tank that stretches a wall in my basement and fill it wil lake malawi haps.. not the ordinary everyday variety either! lol
 
Oh I have, I have Tanzania and Mozambique right now... But they are different fish... Sort of in my mind like saying all the Aulonocara stuartgranti are all the same...

You can have a look at the Protomelas Spilonotus Mbenji and Mozambique as well.

These are all the same species, except caught different places . They may have a minor coloration difference but they are the same

Not fimilar with them, got a pic... and what size tank would you need? Is it not do able?



Of course MFK....lol anything else with them?

Pharaoh would love the second idea...

=] I want all the Victorian cichlids :D

Yah I prob would find some random large Africans maybe some of these:

Tyrannochromis
Hemitaeniochromis
Exochochromis
Fossochromis
Paratilapia
Champsochromis

Big Syno cats =]

Whatever African I can find that is big enough.. which those are like half the size, but you never know =]

Maybe just have a tank with those big guys. Oh The possibilities =]

There are so many cool fish from these lakes!

Can you tell or describe me the difference between these then?
I know that S. Grant identiefied 3 different groups of the spilonotus and they are supposed to be the same, exept that the one group had a white forhead instead of yellow.
 
So I will just post links so the major Protomelas spilonotus. The obviously look different, like I said basically just the same as what happened with the Aulonocara stuartgranti.

Frontosas! I would have some already, but i do not have room. However, when (and if) i upgrade my 125 planted to something bigger, then the 125 WILL house frontosas :)
