Coler, first of all your tank does look quite nice, but you could've strung us along for awhile and had some fun with it.

lol hell yeah missed opportunity

"here is my 180L tank...the water is a little cloudy so you can't see my 5 Pacus or my 12 inch Pleco...or my triggers or damsels...I do a 10% PWC every time there's a Z in the month...I like to feed them gummi bears to bring out their colours...so what do you guys think ???...p.s. do I need heaters/filters for this set-up?"

Lovely little set up. Good work.

Am I right in saying you have tanginykans mixed with malawis in there??

 

[Coler]

thanks its sorta like the opposite to a monster fish tank

you are correct - the malawi/tang mix. not textbook but it works in this tank. there is a leilupi, a juli transcriptus and a neolamprologus tretocephalus (i.e. not a baby frontosa) in with a couple of aulonocara, a Ps. acei, Ps. socolofi, lab caereulus, Ps. Macrothalmus (albino) and a Ps. Muttantis Hybridicus

all male except accidentally the leilupi, who bizarrely spawns regularly resulting in viable fry, none of which I've ever managed to rescue, but would be very interested to know who is doing the business with her.
