Tanganyikan Shell Dwellers...

I love their personalities but they're a bit 'bland' in colouration... are there 'more colourful/patterned' shelldwellers out there?... Latin names please if you know... thanks

With my Multis, it's really hard to get them looking great in photos, but they havexceptional blue eyes. I find them quite attractive, however, if I was going for the looks of a particular shelldweller, I might consider

Lamprologus Stappersii

I really dont know, strapps are hard to tell until you see one devoted to their shell and guarding it furiously.
