I will take her. Pm me.

Great to have you hear Toirtis. Your experience and knowledge will be great to have on this board.

Welcome Captain canuck. What kind of fish do you keep?

Welcome Chris. My goal is to get you out of those mbuna and into some real cichlids from south and central america:P Just kidding.

Welcome ace99. I am 28 and from Calgary as well.

I have currently: 3 Amphilophus Macracanthum (yes I have them and they are real ) 7 Amphilophus Lyonsi 2 Amphilophus citrinellus 6 Archocentrus sajica 1 Nandopsis tetracanthus 2 Parachromis dovii 3 Vieja regani 1 Paratheraps zonatum 1 Wild Amphilophus festae female 2 Caquetaia umbriferus

That is an awesome setup freshmike. Is that Rundlestone?

Thanks. Dovii is just under 10 inches.

I am really budy these days with a new baby, but here is a link to my gallery if you have some time check it out.. http://www.cichlidgallery.com/under-construction

Good looking Jags J-Roc. Still easily one of my favorite guapotes.

I am from Calgary. I feel the same as you J-roc. Forums on the net cater toward a whole different dynamics and geography. Not many people on them (at least the ones I am on) have anybody locally participating. Things like retailer reviews, fish store finds and general experience are hard to find when you are talking to people from another continent. Anyway, looking forward to it. :mellow: Little bit about me I am 28, can be a real smart @$$, opinionated prick. I do however love my cichlids.

I have been seriously into large neotropical cichlids for over 10 years. I have dipped into keeping other types of fish however always land back into the tank busters. Which coinsidentally is the book that got me into these fish to begin with. "The manual of Tank Busters" I am also a collector of very rare species that are not common in the hobby. Some of my fish include Umbriferum, dovii, Macracanthum, lyonsi, some different types of Vieja species, tetracanthus festae etc. I also love large predatory catfish. I live in Calgary, I am 28 years old with 2 kids. Great idea to start up an Alberta fish board. I look forward to adding my 2 cents.
