I know the one in center is Yellow Lab and one on left could be a rusty cichlid and not sure on the right one.. Someone ID them please..

-Thanks
 
Did you use anything special to secure the rock piles, like an aquarium-safe epoxy?
 
Looks very nice.
 
Nice pics..........:)
 
Left top right: Iodotropheus Sprengerae, Labidochromis Caeruleus, and Metriaclima Greshakei.

Nice little tank. All of the fish should have been added at once. Now that your going to wait you could have some serious aggression issues. I suggest getting more of the same species you have. Preferably one male to every 3-4 females. How many fish do you plan on keeping in the tank?

yea we added these for now to see if the tank was alright for them, today we plan to go get more.. In all there will be probably 9 cichlids to this tank and maybe a syno cat.

Try to keep it all mbuna. The haps would get too big and peacocks would not be aggressive enough to hang with the mbuna.
