AllGo'n'Show Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 Anyone got any ideas for some africans to stock a 45gal with? Looking for colourful yet male and female to try and get some breeding pairs. I don't mind if they are goign to outgrow the 45gal as I plan on getting a bigger tank along the way and seperating some as they get larger. Bigger tank as in 130-150gal if you were wondering. Also looking at doing a small sump for fun/learning on the 45g so that can help with waste and filtration. Let me know, thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nevchewy Posted October 12, 2006 Report Share Posted October 12, 2006 First question you have to ask your self is what colors would you like in your tank. 2nd question is to figure out if you would prefer mbuna (most aggressive), peacocks or Haps. 3rd... If you are still unsure go check out Golds and you may get a better chance to see whats out there. I wouln't recommend mixing mbuna/haps/peacocks but to stick with one type alone. I woun't recommend keeping males and females that have similar colors as you may find inbreeding. I personally like Blue's and Yellows and I am very happy with my Saulosi... hope this gives you a good start! nev Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
