Photos: below
 

So I have a beautiful 2.6m long display tank in my living room. Unfortunately, it is lacking livestock.

 

I am an experienced aquarist having had marines/tropheus amongst others. Unfortunately I had bad luck a while ago and lost most.

 

I am now looking to re-stock for display purpose only. So, if you have any Electric Yellows / Electric Blue / Peacocks or any colourful African Cichlids, please let me know.

I am not looking to spend a lot and if you are giving your fish away to good home, they will have a good home. Fed NLS in a nice tank with Texas Holey Rocks.

I'm happy to take you hybrids or anything as long as they are healthy and not diseased. There's zero chance of anything coming out of the tank alive once I put them in - its impossible to catch anything in my tank 1f642.png :)

Closer to South Perth the better.

 

 

The following the the home they will have

nimo.jpgHey, you said you had some bad luck and lost your fish, what happened??  I find bad incidences are usually human error.

If you're asking for free fish then you may want to rethink your hobby of choice, maybe start collecting fallen leaves in your local park

Chris, a while ago whilst I was doing a waterchange, I changed too much water and when the tank was 70% drained, there was a power outage. Causing lack of oxygen and I lost 90% :(. Yes, human error had a big part as well.
The remainder did breed bit but it's a big tank to fill.

Robo, thanks for you comment. But Not necessary mate.
