10 Gallon Fry/Holding African Cichlid tank. When an African is holding I put her in here until she releases her fry. They stay in here until they grow to about an inch. Filled with Electric Yellow fry right now. Couple fake plants, river rocks, sand substrate, Java Moss and a couple small plants. |
| About Yourself: |
I had a fish tank when my kids were little, but they were "kid" tanks, with all the colors. A year ago my son gave me his 20 gallon setup and I made it into a natural one, like I had always wanted. The fish bug bit! I then got another tank with Birchardies, then a few weeks ago still another! I can't seem to stop! But I love them so much and they are so fascinating to watch. |
| Advice: |
Read all you can about a type of fish you are thinking about! Do your research first!!
If you need to keep the Ph high, try putting crushed coral in jars at the back of the tank and mesh bags of it in the filters. Or use as substrate. |
| Fish Kept: |
2 Bolivian Rams, 2 African Dwarf Frogs, 2 Fancy Guppies, 2 Oto Cats, 4 Electric Yellow labs, 4 Acei's, 4 Red Zebra and a good number of fry all the time. |
| Plants Kept: |
Amazon Swords, Melon Swords, Anubias Nanas, Mystery Swords, Red Rubin and Ruffle plant. and a couple tall fake plants in the back. |
| Tank Size: |

| Description: |
20 Gallon: Community Tank with Bolivian Rams & assorted tank mates. 10 Gallon: holds fry and holding females. 30 Gallon: Lake Malawi African Mbuna Cichlids.
