Need More Color!

[Ethos]

I need more color in my 55G.
I have:
1 Electric Yellow Lab
1 Electric Blue Johnni
1 Zebra Albino
1 Stripped Zebra
1 Algy eater
1 C. Calvus

I need more blues and yellows!
I have an albino...But I need color!

Ps: How do you tell a Male Yellow and a female?

If you want more yellow then the first thing you should do is add more Yellow Labs- these are very social colony breeders and I would only keep them in groups. For more blues you can consider P. Socolofi or M. Callainos, both worthy additions (but go with only one of them, not both). The more mbuna you add, the worse off that poor calvus is going to be - he really doesn't belong.

I'm not concered about that at all.
No one has ever bothered my Calvus. The mbunas all pick on eachother, but never pick on him. I've noticed My Albino has swam really close really fast next to him, and he didn't even flinch.

You've tried it in a crowded tank with adults?
