Updated 72g Mbuna tank

Nope! Must have more! : It is not doing great in the tank right now but I think it was because it got stuck in the center under the brace (no light) and some died off.

I think once I get the freebies from petluvr I should be good on frogbit for life! petluvr threw in some duckweed too.

lol hey i threw in duckweed and you didnt even ask for it
whats the nitrate reading on the tank?

 

[myswtsins]

And the Mbunas enjoyed the free snack!

Nitrates are at about 20ppm, 40-50% water change scheduled for fri/sat.

very beautiful are those electric blues and yellows in your tank?

 

[myswtsins]

Thanks. Everything that is in the tank is listed in my signature. The blue one yours probably referring to are Melanochromis cyaneorhabdos "Maingano". Which even at their small size are chasing EVERYTHING in sight.

And the yellow ones are Labidochromis caeruleus "yellow labs"

very nice, beautiful fish. I believe i had a yellow lab once as a first time fish owner and when i introduced another fish one day he shook like he was having a seizure then black lines appeared across his back and eyes. I do alot more investigation and research now before i go about deciding what fish i want.

After preparing for this tank I don't even want to think about research anymore! But it never ends of course.

that tank is soooooooo great, luv it!

 

[myswtsins]

Thanks powerkit, I love it too. I am dreading thinking about having to rearrange it in the near future to take all the fish out and sex them though!!
