Well, as some of you may know, I have been turning my 150gal into a Malawi tank. I am very new to African Cichlids, but im toally hooked! :) Africans just seem to absolutly fascinate me!

Anyways, I went to my lfs to look around and they were having a 'BUY ONE GET ONE FREE' sale on all fish!
I got 6 fish for the price of 3! :)

I got...

- 1 male, 1 female = Protomelas Stevensi - (Taiwan Reef)
- 1 male, 3 females = Fossorochromis Rostratus

Here are some pics while there in the bag... more pics to come, (camera died) :(

First, the Taiwan Reefs, then the Fossorochromis Rostratus
