mixing big cichlids

  • We are currently upgrading MFK. thanks! -neo
never seen those pics before but i dont think i'll ever get tired of looking at them.but what kind of catfish is that
 
Steve is that the Barred Midas on the bottom left corner or is that a uro? Kinda hard to tell. And it's about the biggest pictus cat you'll ever see :D Wish I woulda stopped by the other day when I was down and checked him out :( Oh well I'm sure I'll be down there soon enough
 
What person a thinks is overstocked, may not be........

ammerman19 & repair are a great example of how "spread the aggression" can and will work with the right filtration....

Watch yer back if you hear a "crikey" LOL!

I Smell a Irwin batch comming on!

Not Due to aggression but by my own mistake, yeah, I have had a loss, I just screwed up and more or less sent 2 of 4 young Salvini to there death, but that was my stupid azz mistake. as for aggression between my guys? Nothing more than a chase here and a flare there.

Water Changes and Over Filteration! Unless you are like repair and have a 1 million gallon drip system! LOL!

:D
