can you tell me the proper name for my cichlids please i think they are
Aulonocara hansbaenschi


do you think i am right?


in my tank at them moment i have
1 female peacock
2 male peacocks
5 sucker catfish
7 snails
20 goldfish (slowly getting eaten)

can i get another 2 or 3 female cichlids in there without a problem.....
also would blue claw yabbies or red claw crayfish be ok in there with what i have??? i dont care about the guppies only got them cause the missus likes them but there getting eaten which is good

they are about 10cm long if these pics arent enough i have a little video not great quality but might be good enough http://au.youtube.com/thesoul2008

Very nice looking fish there!
What size is the tank they are in (if I missed it sorry). You need more females IMO, you really need to have 3-4 females per male...the males can get pretty nasty/territorial or pick on the female if spawning happens.
 
i have been looking and looking everywhere i can to find more females but i cannot seem to get them if you know where i can find some it would be greatley appreciated
 
I would look on Aqua bid, maybe Ebay? Maybe someone here can tell you a good breeder.
 
Off topic here...sorry, but Paul is that your Jag in your avatar? I love him!!!

i have tried ebay but will not ship to Australia i will have a look at aqua bid now thanks for that. I have been looking for a breeder here in Australia but they are hard to find everyone seems to only stock males or will not sell there females
 
Wow, I didn't realize you were in Australia...yeah that makes shipping a little more difficult in some cases. I know there are some folks on here from Australia...hopefully, one will come along here and be able to help you with this.

Yeah, a 55 is big enough for a few more IMO. Paul knows what he is talking about though, so listen to him OK. I was just learning about Africans when I switched my tank over to CA's....so I know some things but not as much as others here.

If I happen to come across anything though I will let you know.

Good luck!
