Hey there. Not getting any traction on this question in General Freshwater, so let's give it a shot where the folks know something about West African riverine cichlids....
I picked up a bag of Moliwes at auction last week and set them up in a 40 long. Couple of sponge filters, lots of caves, mixed substrate heavy on the sand and mulm, floating some driftwood, will be planting it heavily over the next month or 2.
At the moment, though, they're rattling around like peas in a bass drum (They're all about 1" long or a bit less).
I have been pondering adding some killifish to the mix. I have 2 pair of Aphyosemion striatum "Myoko" and a trio of Fundulopanchax gardneri "Gold". I was pondering adding the A. striatum to the 40 after I get a spawn or two out of them.
What do y'all think? Good idea? Bad? Need more info to know?
Help a brother out.
That's step one. Once I have some idea on that, we'll move on to step 2.
