So, I'm planning to get a 75g that I will be moving my Mbuna into. So, I will have my 55g free...I'm thinking of using it as a Lake Tang. tank. Looking at the Cichlid forum (I love that site), they have a "suggested" tank area. Now I have C. brichardi (4) already that will be going in there and they are not in any of the tank suggestions, but here is what I am thinking about...
• Cyprichromis leptosoma - 12
Select 1 pair from each group (max of 2 pairs):
• Altolamprologus calvus or compressiceps
• Neolamprologus leleupi or cylindricus
• Julidochromis or Chalinochromis
• Telmatochromis vittatus, bifrenatus or brichardi
or
• Cyprichromis leptosoma - 12 (non-jumbos)
• Altolamprologus calvus or compressiceps
• Neolamprologus buescheri - 12
• Shell dweller pair of choice -'Lamprologus' (Shellies) brevis multifasciatus(group)meleagris,
ornatipinnis, ocellatus, speciosus, similis (group), Neolamprologus signatus
Does anyone see any problems with either of these set ups? I'm not set on anything, and not even sure this is really the way I will be going with the tank, but just thinking a bit ahead
