Its been a while since I have done an update thread, I have recently had a nice upgrade of tanks and a bunch new stock.

Got my hands on a nice 180g this past weekend and have really expanded my stock past Bichirs and my Jardini, I have really fell in love with C/A and S/A cichlids.

Total stock as of right now:

14" Cong
2x 12" Delhezi (1 WC, 1 CB)
18" WC Ansorgii
18" WC Koloton
2x 14"-16" WC Tikinso Enlicheri
5" Megaladoris Irwini Cat
12" ID Shark
12" Bocourti cichlid
8" Blue Texas cichlid
12" female Jag
16" male Jag
20" Jardini

Aggression hasn't been too big an issue, the Jardini and big Jag have scuffled a little bit, but I haven't had any trouble since I moved the Jags driftwood palace to a corner of the tank the Jardini doesn't really bother with. Aside from that 0 problems.

Crappy cell phone pics do not do these guys justice, the colors on the big Jag and Bocourti are really insane.

Heh, since tanking down my 110g I had an extra Fx5 floating around, so I threw it on here! 3 Fx5s!

Nah, I do need some colorful severums though. The drift wood looks alot more bulky than it really is, its actually 3 pieces fitted together an has channels running through all over. Sice I set it up that was most everyone hangs out in there vise the jardini. The Jardini actually still has room to coast above it too.

I wanted to make something the Jardini wouldn't go into (because he explores every inch of the inch) when the jags breed, i imagine tha a breeding 16" Jag and 20" Jardini might not face off too well without their own space.

Yeah that make sense. Get some red shoulder severums!
 
There are some guys close in the area selling some yellows and super reds, I am very tempted, but the wife says I have to get rid of some stock before I get anything else. :(

I might end up letting the Delhezis and ID shark go for them.
 
Haha yeah, I dont think the ID will get much bigger. Its 12" and the guy I got it from claimed it to be 3 years old and was in a 220, so it wasnt stunted.

I might have to bypass the wife, fish with color is new and exciting for me.

The id shark would make sense since you probably can't house it for life. Or you could just buy the super reds and worry about the wife after
