I have over 100 Saulosi offspring, mine breed like crazy. Your Saulosi tank was the reason I got back into the hobby after being away for many years. I’m excited to see what you’ll do with them.

The blue acara likes holes. I have two pairs in a tank and I made an ‘appartement’ to the left and one to the right. The dominant pair inspected the apartments and made their choice. Now they divided the aquarium in two sections, they have peaceful gatherings and the males have some show offs at the borders of their territories. All are very happy and there is a lot of breeding behavior. Always cleaning leaves for the eggs and rearranging their apartments to make it look perfect. I have a school of 12 tetras, they don’t bother them. The tetras school very well because of the big fish are impressive.

Glad to see that you are getting over the fish keeping blahs, Zenzo!

[darrylmoore]

Longear sunfish are more or equally beautiful to some African cichlids u should try keeping some

[NeilZirlin]

Great video as always. I wish I had as many tanks to have the freedom of starting different projects. Wife has put the brakes on at 3

Hi brother do you use wave maker inyour fish tanks

[wisconsinaquatics]

Have you ever kept a male peacock alone as a wet pet? In my kitchen I've got my OB boi skittles in my 55 gal soon too be upgraded to a 72 bowfront. I've got a few videos of him on my channel if anybody wants to see how an African cichlid behaves living alone. I also had a female mbuna red zebra named Boonie for about 4 years until she passed. Cool video yo!

Hello! I have a stocking question 🙋🏻‍♂️ how successful do you think this stocking list would be in a 125 gallon?

[zubairaquaticpro]

Sir please suggest me a good mbuna cichlid fish food, i am new in this hobby

[muttswob]

I’m curious to see how much you like to feed to get them to grow to the max?

I put two dozen juvy mbunas in a 60 gallon I have running an FX4 and HOB so I’m filtering for up to like 300-350 gallons so I’m over filtering. I want to grow these out over the next year and move them to a 90 gallon.

Again, just curious to see how many times a day would be “safe” to feed them. Factor in the over filtering as well as min one water change a week 50-60% if not 2 water changes a week at 50% depending on the nitrate and ammonia levels. Any advice would be appreciated and will definitely sub if I get a reply. Thank you!

love sauloci (?). Never see them in stores for sale.

Electric Blue Acara question
I bought 3 to go in my 125 with an archerfish and 5 Roselines. Put them in a 20 long to quarentine. They paired off, killed the 3rd and bred. Eventually I moved the pair into the 125 and the male became very aggressive to the female to the point she could not leave 1 corner of the tank so I pulled her. She is all alone in my 20 long and he is still being a bully in my 125. Should I get some more and add them all together into the 125, pull him and put in 20 long with her, or is he likely to be a bully no matter what? I really wanted a group in the 125 and she doesn't seem happy alone in the 20 long.

@TazawaTanks what is your opinion of aquarium salt for cichlids I just started a tank years ago i used to keep them ut am confused with the salts and if they are needed

[spidy]

any problem with your saulosi offspring when inbreed happen there? Or you keep adding / swap new bloodline. Read the article saying in breeding can cause the offspring having problem ie stunted, short life, deformed

I wish I could win some Geophagus. My local shop don’t have any for a long time. On eBay the fry is so expensive. I would like a group of six .
