i want to start up a species tank for Lamprologus Callipterus but the problem im having is finding shells big enough for the 12cm males!
has anyone got any ideas i thought about african land snail shells but cant seem to get hold of them.
i emailed this guy http
/www.africanaquatic.com/ and he says he MIGHT be able to get hold of some large malawi shells for me but he is gonna let me know.
i posted this http
/www.fishforums.net/Wanted-Big-Snail...ls-t191579.html in the buy and sell section and as we can see ive had no responses only been up a day mind.
so has anyone kept these cichlids and if so what sort of shells did u use? ive been told not to use most marine shells as the fish can get caught in the spirals and these fish r probly gonna cost me around £10 each and i dont want them dying caught in there shell.
im really stuck with these fish but i just love the look of them and i want some badly.
