My favorite calvus are White chaitika.

Those were the first type of Calvus I've seen... 3 inches $30 at one of my LFS... I didn't have enough money at first... The day before I got enough money... They were both sold... Made me so angry

I'd go for a single A. calvus. Variant depends on your taste!

My favorites are the dark colored ones, like the A. clavus Inkfin. To see what they are like, you need a front view. Only way to see those beautiful velvet-like pectorals waving about.

Or this one:

Forgot to say: the goby diet doesn't match the food of an A. calvus. So I'd get rid of the herbivore.

C. horei is very agressive, swims a lot and grows rather big. Fish for 300+ gallon tank.

That one in the picture looks awesome! I'd love to have that one. And yes I know. My Goby would do better in a tank with fish such as Tropheus... But hes awesome and I'd much rather take the proper precautions then not have a fish as cool as him. and Thanks for your input. I'd love to have C. Horei someday... I guess taht day isn't to soon... Oh well... Good things come to people who wait... Right?

I feed my comps, calvus, fronts, peacocks, gobies, haps, mbuna, shellies... everything about the same.... no issues...

Is there certain food you feed them. I just go pretty much every other day with Spirulina and Regular Protein food... and then once a week I feed bloodworms
