My African Cichlid Collection

[ricomambo]

Picked up two new Cichlids today - a Livinstonii and a Polystigma - from BillyBlanco... Pics are in my album but thought I post it as a Thread so everyone can see...

Also a pic of my Marble Cray carrying her berries... the baby crays are occasional treats for my cichlids...

Enjoy...

The third pic from the bottom, above the one with the Frontosa and Livinstonii, what species is that? I have one exactly like that that was thrown in with an auction of fronts and haps, and I've never been able to fully identify it.

The biggest Gold Comp I have would be around 4 to 5 inches in my estimate.. I had it for at least 2 years, going 3 years.... they were half an inch when I first had them... I do weekly water changes and feed them primarily NLS with the occasional crayfish, shrimp, and bloodworm...
