Hey guys
Just got my multi set up all finished it's looking great !

They're loving it & have formed 2 little colonies either side of the centre coral piece
(The way I set it up & hoped for)

40kg of white playsand in a standard 4 footer, painted the background black & wallah!
sorry for the bad quality (phone camera) hope you enjoy

Nice work and TFS

[Mattymak]

Thanks mate

I tried to set it up like 2 colonies separate from each other & can't wait for them to start breeding.

Yeah I agree, I love the attitude on them & love the fact they are the smallest cichlid in the world, perfect for shell life hahaha

Thanks bro & you're welcome!

[Redevilz]

Looks sweet Matty!!

[Mattymak]

Thanks mate! Now should I just leave it as a single species tank?

[Redevilz]

If you want to breed them yes, if you just want a mixed tang tank grab some cyprochromis jumbo, Vebas had some stunners!

[Mattymak]

Yeah I'll keep it as single species I think.

I'll maybe mix tang my 4x2x2 or tropheus

Looks nice. Love shellies. Do a vid to show off their antics

[Redevilz]

lol Matty 44 posts today and still going like a tank!

[Mattymak]

Thanks Jase! Yeah I will bro I suck at vids though I just use my phone haha

Lol I think I've had over 100 before lol
I'm planning to put more shells on each side along with some limestone or holey rock

[Redevilz]

Seaview have lots of Holey rock.

[Mattymak]

I have shitloads I used to have 6x2x2 filled with it haha
I never get rid of my rocks haha

[Mattymak]

Looks a lot better now, added the limestone from
The auction & a lot more shells (thanks to jason82, cheers bro!)



Also a pic of a cheeky bugger in a shell
(Sorry again for phone quality pics)
