I have about 75 in my 240. I'll do 50 in a 180. Looks so much better with alot of fish swimming around.

I'll buy that! :thumbsup:

I like the bigger haps so it can't be 100. But I think i'll hook up another filter and see what happen's with a few more.


well then yeah, you def go about under 50. Before the storm I was going to buy a 200 from someone and they had 40 haps in it from 6"-10". Some were even breeding.

cant wait to see some pics.
 
50 sounds about right. I like Haps the most so I guess 50 and a little more filteration. You can never have enough filteration I say.
 
You will be amazed at how much better that tank will look if you remove the pots and replace them with some rock work. :eek: Far more pleaseing to the eye.
Caeruleus is a rather peaceful mbuna so when you start to look at some of the Metraiclima, Melanochromis or any of the Pseudotropheus species you will need numbers so as to avoid one male dominating the tank, especially if you are able to acquire big fish. My supplier received soime mbuna of around 12-15cm recently and they are big fish. The Labeotropheus were stunning. Too big for my tanks so will have to look at acquiring a couple of bigger tanks.
:naughty: :woot: :clap :headbang2 :thumbsup:
