Hello all I am Kenneth

[Armyken]

Hope this finds everyone doing well. I am Kenneth and have been keeping fish for going on a year now. I was briefly into it years ago and a buddy at work got me back into last winter. I am currently running a 55gal, 13gal as a small grow out/ hospital tank, and 10gal for my daughter and a 3.5gal as my tank at work. I have 6 mbuna, 1 dinosaur bicher, 1 true parrot cichlid, 2 rainbow sharks, 1 blue acara, 1 electric blue acara, 6 kuhli loach, 1 flash pleco, and a few others I am sure I am forgetting. Tonight I lost my electric blue jack Dempsey. He got startled darted up to the top and hit is head. He was a good fish I will post a pic. He was one of my favorites. What is a little murky as pic was taken after a water change.

Electric blue Jack Dempsies are tricky, don't loose sleep over it. Sometimes these things happen. Mine just turned up their heels for no reason.

Your tanks look interesting, full photos please.

Thanks. He was an impulse buy and one of the more expensive fish I have bought. Once I seen him I knew I had to have him. I will most likely get another one.

Good job, they are great and worth the work and risk

The first pics are how I had it setup then we moved. The middle is after we moved and the last to are for the most part how it is now. Don't have good pics of all the fish out. I will try to get some pics when I doing a feeding next time.

With cichlid tanks I always like to give them something to play with, so I like to have a plastic plant or two just drifting around.
