Just joined today, brought my first Cichlids a few days ago with a 3 foot tank, 40 juvenile and adults and 30 Hongi babies.
Had my first tank, a 4 footer when I was kid and still got it. Between my son and I we have 8 tanks.

Thanks for looking.

Jeffrey

thanks for asking Barf. It's all over now, just the big clean up.

Cheers

Yes Cawdor starting with 30 babies is good. Need to set up a just emptied 2 ft weed tank into a fry tank.

I'm not out to breed but this is what happens so will try not just to produce natural food for the adults.

Thank-you Sarah all's well in the family and no-body we know was affected, sure is a very bad situation
for those affected not only Qld but most of Eastern Aust.

Well finally got some photos together, only of the Cichlids, of course.

It's a 3 ft 135 lt tank, lost some fish mainly due to jumpers.

Mostly Hongi, Electric Yellows and Blues. One Peacock, lost its mate, and a few other odds.

The Pleco is now 160mm long, wait til he hangs off the glass to measure.

Have the black plastic background, looks half like a mirror.

The Fry tank is an old 2ft tank

Cheers

Jeffrey
