Okay, just finished with my first cichlid tank. wanted some cheap colorful ones to cycle my tank with. bought some realtivly inexpensive ones out of the "assorted african cichlid" tank. my reaseach leads me to beleive these are "Lake Malawi" cichlids. anyone have any advice on keeping them. been keeping tropical for years these are a little new to me so im just throwing this out there. I want to post some pic's soon. I've collected tanks and equipment for a while and have ended up with some fnunky stuff. so i made a "Planet Mars" tank, and set these guys up in it.
