Thanks man! I got the Kelberi at like 3 inches. It's been awsome to watch him grow. I hope I can get the Tig on Massivore sometime.

I like your tank setup. Are the gars good tankmates with the cichla? I might have to try that combo along with the plants one day.

The Gars are great tankmates for the Cichla. No aggression towards the Gars. The Cichla obviously eat more aggressively than the Gars, but the Gars have no problem getting food once the other guys have their mouths full. The Gars also eat Massivore off of the gravel, which makes them pretty easy to feed with those other pigs swimming around.

Nice collection, do the gars get to the food okay with the cichla? when i had them before mine were always a little bit slow and often went hungry

Thanks. See my last reply about the Gars eating. If I fed smaller portions every day, I'll bet the Gars would have trouble getting food, but I feed big portions every other or every third day, so there is enough food in the tank for everyone's bellys to be full.

You can't go wrong with some Cichla and some oddballs to fill the rest:D
