Well the Pet Shop let me down yesterday with my Malawi Order

So, I've ordered online the following....what do you think of my stocking?

Yellow Labs (of course!)
Cobalt Blue Zebras
Red Zebras
Bumblebee (pseudotropheus crabro)
Labidochromius Hongi

Hoping for a striking colour assortment...what do you think?

Yea, In a 75 im thinking thats way too many fish as well.. Yes, with mbunas the "per inch" rule dosn't nessacrarly apply, but I still think you have too many fish. When they are all full grown it will be crowded....

Yea. Maybe when they get about 2 inches move the labs to a 55 and get a few Acei.
