help with my cichlids ASAP

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
Yeah my bad Tydus I've been getting about 4 hours of sleep per night the last week because of school :(. I think my train of thought was that he was liking those kind of fish so I linked him the list to the haps haha. Anyways, my point is still the same, reading is an important part of the hobby and I feel that anyone who's really serious about it should spend a large portion of time just reading through tons of species profiles and advice from the pros.

This is also very true. Good advice.
 
That is a really good pickup, I am glad you listened and got them a bigger tank. They are beautiful fish but can be nasty to each other. Trust the advice you get here, these people are great!!!
 
Chillax fellas LOL ...man, i'd be affraid to put both of you in the same tank LOL

Sometimes I have a tendency to ask a lot of questions too even if I've read the info from magazines/websites because it's just so much better to hear it from actual people who have experienced it first hand (like MFK members). There are times also when I would ask the same question over and over again because perhaps I'm hoping I would hear the answer I like. e.g. "can i put this type of fish with that type of fish"...I've always wanted to put a frontosa in my mbuna tank 55g and I remember I kept asking different sites or LFS if I could...until someone tells me "yes, I've done it and there's no problems at all" etc...no luck so far LOL...I went and got a fish that I thought was a frontosa and ended up being a tetr-----somethin. almost identical. so i guess that's a sign that i really shouldn't put a frontosa in my mbuna tank. :)

But anyway, let's continue to enjoy the site and continue to learn from each other and be patient with one another especially with members new to the hobby. I know it's an African Cichlids section but let's all relax and be like neon tetras LOL and work together as a peaceful community :D Otherwise, y'all are gonna need some stress coat soon. Peace Love and Peacocks LOL I dunno. I'm at work and I'm bored fellas.

HEP HEP!!! HOOORAAYYY!!! LOL


P-NOY Pride.

you said it all... ive done a lot of reading but i still cant resist to ask the person who had already tried or experienced it... so for me read then ask the well experience aquarist then ask ask ask ask hehehe...
 
alot of our questions also most likely have already been asked and asnswered by fellow members. feel free to use the "search" option on top as well to find helpful answers.
 
beautiful fish you have there-like everyone has said, now that you know what species you have do lots of reading up on them so you can give them a great life! best of luck to you and your new fish..
