New pickup, out of my normal comfort bubble

pair of Lepidolamprologus elongatus

Really Nice Duane! How big do those guys get? I also just picked up a colony of Kigoma fronts, out of the norm also!

The teeth on those are awesome!

I have seen photos where taken in Lake Tanganyika the head alone is approx 6", but believe they are slow growing, my male is 7", female 5".
They have been non aggressive with cichlids half their size, they are housed with cichlids from Barumbi mbo (konia eisentraudti, and Stomatepia mariae).

some South Americans (Acarichthys heckelli and Guianacara geayi)

and a few Synodontus petricola

Bet they'd be a good fit, with the frontosa.

Where did you get the Elongatus? they are my favorite fish for 25 years.
