Heres a shot fish from Lake Tanganyika and Malawi mixed tank,Yes I said Mixed the lady at the store said you cant mix them but the books say I can so I did,no fighting so far, the book also says to crowd the tank so it is harder to pick on just one fish,you know they get lost in the crowd.What do yall think?

Looks great Casey.
I wanna use your last pic for a whats my name fish just to see who know if thats ok. I know who else does?
Casey like I said in theother forum they like a higher PH what are you keeping them at? I used to run crushed coral in the filters to keep the PH buffered to where they like it. Also you can buy the Salt from the lakes and that will help also.
Keep up the good work dude
Jeff

Don't you love the prices on FW fish compared to SW? I know there are some spendy ones in FW to but most of the time, you can stock a whole aquarium for the price of a couple of SW fish.
