I've got some neolamprologus multifasciatus in a species tank, getting a bit crowded so I could sell you some. If you're interested, PM me when you're ready to buy and let me know how many you want.

nice one. I've got my tank cycled and ready for shellies. I've never kept occy's before so I'm on the look out for them.

I'm thinking I'll use conduit elbow pieces instead of shells as its a lot cheaper than getting escargot shells (under a dollar each)

Do yourself a favor Westie and buy some of those shells, not sure occies would be happy enough to spawn in conduit elbows as i needs to be a snug fit with only one entry/exit point. Occys are my favourite type of shell dweller, so much spunk for such a tiny little fish but they can be a bit of a challenge due to aggression. Using decorations to create visual barriers works a bloody treat.
