There are also 2 banjo cats in there (With an inch and a half of sand, I won't see them again :p )

And, the Peacock's cousin, in all of his pudgy glory :rofl:

Awesome!! You're killing me with the gudgeons :X I want some so bad!

Are these new fish or just a new tank?
 
I got most of these fish a few months ago, but they were for this tank :) The badis are a "gift" from lucky62 :p

Thanks :)

Love the keyholes i used to have a pair of them, there great fish! :thumbs:
 
Thanks guys, I'm leaving some space in the tank for a single male dwarf cichlid, hopefully my dad can get his nannacara or cockatoos to raise some fry :D

Is it just me or do keyholes eat just about anything you give them? :huh:
 
What's with the tubes on the bed of your tank?
 
pseud - PVC pipes are good hide outs for fish :nod:

Dwarfs,keyholes will eat anything, even neons :mad:

DD
 
lol, no i think the peacocks will be alright :nod:
neons are just an annoyance and are little shiny things,what cichlid wouldnt want to eat it?

looking at your lovely pics, seems I have three males left from the five I purchased. Pitty they only show up here every now and then :(

How are your keyholes doing? My 'Pair' seem to be two males, no fighting, but nothing else either. One is smaller with smaller fins, but thats the only difference I see. And yes, they eat anything :D

Sorry to here you can't find any gudgeons -_- These two had 3 others as company when we got them, but they jumped, we are very lucky to be left with a male and female :thumbs:

The keyholes are adjusting very very very slowly but they seem ok :) They are extremely skittish and like to shoal, so far they are bhaving like tetras :lol:
