Picked up 6 Chalinochromis brichardi and 5 syno petricola today! The guy said the Chalinochromis brichardi are pretty mellow and should do well for me. I'm pretty excited. I took a few quick pictures of the 20 long. They are a little freaked out but look fantastic. The synos went into hiding right away so no pictures of those.
The guy had an awesome fish room! Lots of Tangs. I wish I had brought my camera but I didn't think to take it with me.
I also threw in a picture of the newly arranged 20 long and 2 of my 3 calvus. These 2 are the medium and small one. The big guy is pretty shy.

Love your tank Blue!!! Those fishies are sooooo nice looking! Which tank did the syno's go in?
 
Thanks!


They went in the 20 long for now. They still need to grow a little before they are moved to the 80 gallon. One was big enough to add with the mbuna but I didn't want to just add one fish so he's hanging out with the others. I already have 4 petricolas in the 80 gallon I just got them some buddies.
 
AWSOME....I was wanting some for mine, but wasn't sure how it would work out. Guess I better start looking for some ;)
 
Beautiful fishes those Chalinochromis, Blue! Good luck with them!
 
Great shots!

The petricola are great with the mbuna! When I first got mine the mbuna tried to pick at them but dropped them quickly. The synos went on like nothing happened and the mbuna left them alone. I think they have spins to protect themselves.

Thanks! They are great and feeling a little braver this morning. they are all eating well and seem to be getting along. My lone multi is not pleased but these guys can take his aggression.
Speaking of which, how horrible is it to only have 1 multi? I removed the rest but I cannot catch this guy. He doesn't use the shells he darts for the plants instead.
 
Congratulations on your fish!!! I tried to see the pictures but can't seem to make my computer cooperate (?).
