My Mbuna Tank

[Ethos]

So, today I spent $80 Buying stuff....30 on valcanic rock, which it wouldn;t have been a whole lot cheap for going to the north shore, because gas ios so expansive
The rock looks pretty cool though.

I added my first fish, which are;
1 Electric yellow lab (Named Comet, after MY Dog, who is a yellow labrador)
1 Electric Blue
1 Albino. I believe its a Zebra, but I'm not a 100% sure. The recite just says "Albino Cich"
So there you go, I'll add more later

My friend had mubunas but she soon grew tired of them because she said they where so BORING!!!She soon started to look for other fish and lost interest in what she once called "children" They soon died because she put off their water changes. She makes me sick.... I was trying to make her give me her 50g because it was sitting there doing nothing because she had shut it down after her fish died.....She says she wants some puffers...I think not!

Actully, they are quite active.
On the little tab thingy in the store, it said "behavoiurally intresting"
I think they are.
Here's what the recipt says....or some of it. I'll only add the intresting stuff....

"1 Mini Lava Carv 4.99
1 med LavaCarve 11.99
1 LG lava Rock W 19.99
1 African SM ALBINO 9.99
1 African ELEC/BLUE-J 10.99
1 African ELECTRIC" 9.99"

So, thats the intresting stuff. The lava rock was really expansive, but it looks really cool!
Tomorow me and a friend are going to "World Of Fish" to buy more.
She's stocking her 10G with livebearers.

The cichlids are the most I've ever spent on one fish...hmhm...

I have a mix of Mbuan in with Haps aka Peacocks. Very peaceful world it is the Mbuna tend to chase each other.

A few you may want to look into getting.

OB Zebra (Orange blotch)
Ice Blue (males light blue with beautiful red/orange fins) Females not as colorful more of a muddy brown with orange fins.
Rusty Cichilid<--cute little rusty colored guys with beautiful hue of lavender in their middles
Kenyi are also nice, females are blue, males are yellow.

That's about what have in my tank for mbuna, the rest are peacocks, 1 female to 4 males.
