sorry for the spots due to water spillage.... got some problem with the filter outlet (water got sprayed out)in the morning:D.... suggestions welcome
 
nice looking fish! you may want to change the substrate to sand and or crushed coral, if it's not already..just a question for you...have you checked the ph? the driftwood might be keeping the ph too low for africans to reach their full coloration potential and health could be at jeapardy if ph is below 7.6~ what types of peacocks are those? looks like a rubescence and a usisya?
 
nice. i see at least one giraffe in there. if you get a dark substrate, it will make the colors show better
 
awesome pics. I love the first one. The sand makes them stand out even more. I changed over the other day to sand and I love it. But good job looks good
 
thanks for the compliments....:)

i added the bog wood jus a week back... thats y water looking brownish...:confused: have to check ph... but water here is really hard...

Yep i also felt the substrate look odd after adding it to my tank:(... but have no idea how to replace it with out disturbing the setup..any simple methods.....!!
 
beautiful fish... thanks for sharing
 
i would change a lot. You have there haps and mbunas. As mbunas get older you can say goodbye to your aulonocara and smallest recommended tank for venustus is 100gal.
 
thanks for the suggestions...
the stock over there is c.moori, aulonocara, yellow labs and venustus. i dont find yellow lab, only mbuna variety in the tank that agressive. the tank is 90G.

If yellow lab is the only mbuna that is fine - as it is one of most peaceful there is. 90g is too small for venustus and other has for that matter - as for egzample moori are to be kept in group not less than 6.
