The Conversion Has Begun...

[Maximus]

Thanks Ferris, as I went to take the pictures then, they were out and about I
Think they were just setteling in

Anyways, success

Here are the two suspects, and in the last photo, the stunner of the tank B)

And one by its own:

And the stunner:

Thanks again,

Maximus

Just looked at the photos and...

...WOW!

These were taken with my phone

Especially the second one!


Sorry, got a bit excited there


Maximus

Definitely Callainos and Elongatus Mpanga

EDIT: The one in the bottom right of the last pic could be an Afra Cobue or even a juvenile male Lombardoi changing from blue to yellow.

Definitely Callainos and Elongatus Mpanga

Thanks Ferris

Just a quick question;

How will I meet the different diet requirements of the aulonocara with the rest of the mbuna?


Maximus

 

[Ferris]

Feed plenty of spirulina enriched frozen brine shrimp along with something like the Tetra pro veggie as the staple - that will keep both the Mbuna and Aulonocara happy and healthy. That's what i do.

 

[Maximus]

Thanks alot dude

But what if I carn't get the enriched brine shrimp?

As you said before, It can be hard to get


Maximus

 

[Ferris]

Most good LFS will sell it - Pets at home even have it sometimes. Normal brineshrimp is OK in smaller doses.

Nice pics for a camera phone by the way.

 

[Maximus]

Thanks, I'm chuffed with them!

I'll take a good look at work tomorrow

See I told you it was callainos lol 8) I would say the one in the bottom right was hybrid lombardoi.

 

[Maximus]

UPDATE B)

Hey guys,

Well at work today, I had alot of time to choose what I wanted, so today I came home
With:

- 3 yellow labs (lombardoi?)
- 2 more of the "hybrid lombardoi"
- A fairly grown Callainos
- Another large (well, same size as the one in there) Elongatus Mpanga



So, what do you think?


Thanks,

Maximus

 

[caboose_122]

sounds good

the yellow lab is labidocromis Caeruleus

callainos are beautiful fish
lambardoi are agressive fish, you might want to watch them but you probably wont have any problems with them in a tank that size

 

[Maximus]

Thanks dude B)

Pictures to follow,

Well, after tea


Maximus

 

[Maximus]

Can anybody see any potential problems here?

Oh Ferris, I got my hands on some spirulina enriched brine shrimp too

[Maximus]

I never even knew it existed!

How is my stocking going?

Anywhere near full?


Thanks again,


Maximus

Do me a favour and list your existing fish all together - this thread is getting long.
