Ok, here is the deal... I've got some crazy ideas and I am looking for some guidance.

Should I do it?

Post your opinion, answer it in the poll, whatever works. Any relevant info you guys have will be great as well.

the fish in question here is the "lamprologus multifasciatus" my LFS has a bunch in and I really like them. I considered doing up a small tank but I was just thinking I could do a really big and nice display with these little fellas. I love them, it seems they would be great little fish.

Thanks for any input!

that would be awesome i say do it!XD
 
That would be awesome! They have a large multi tank at the Vancouver Aquarium and it looks great! I don't think anything under 30g really does these fish justice because although 10g is sufficient you don't get to see them making a mini-metropolis of shellies like they do in the wild.

Would make an excellent natural display IMO. Espescially if you keep substrate, driftwood, rocks and any plants consistent with their natural habitat.
 
Just chuck them in the big tank, it will explode, would be cool to see, I have spoke to someone on another forum and they have 5 Neolamprologus Multifasciatus in a 4 foot long 2 foot high.... :good:
