thanks man, but i am going to stick with just one 75g, and a few smaller tanks.
i have a 36g in the works.
its a Jebo, but it looks nice.
i like the dimensions.
i will probably make it another Tanganyikan Tank.
i dont know whats going to go in it, but something fun thats colorful and will breed easilly.
i may do small neolamprologus and a pair of julies.
i also have a 20g long that i am working on making a shell dweller tank out of.
all i need is about 20 more shells, a few brown river stones, and a blue background.
for the 36g, i will probably use a couple Koralia 1's and and eheim 2217 canister.

I like the two species of Telmatochromis I have with my julies. Love how they stick their little faces out of the shells.

telamtochromis go into shells?
what sp. do you have?
sounds cool.
i had a T. Sp Orange Scribble, he was nuts!
are yours aggressive?

i was also thinking for the 36g that maybe a pair of Neolamprologus Nkombe would be cool.

and ive always loved Calvus/comps.

i kindof want a small variety of Small Tangs in the 36g, but i have to get it, get it setup, and get some filters for it.

the 20g long should be cycled by this coming monday.

i still have to get a blue background, several brown river stones, and like 15-20 more shells.

then pickup a small group of shellies, i like brevis, but gold occies are neat to.
i dont know which one i will choose, i need to research every variant i like first so i will know if i really like it, or if its one of my fmaous impulse buys)

i would like to try to breed them.

are shellies relatively easy to breed?

My African tank has various species of julies (ornatus, marlieri, and regani), Telmatochromis (brichardi and temporalis) a goby cichlid, and two golden occies. Mine have not bred. You know I have a reputation for fish that won't breed :(

its all good, i seem to only be able to breed sa/ca cichlids
although, i did breed my old trio of white labidochromis, but that about it:(

i have breed a few mbuna, but no tangs, i cant even get brichardi to breed for me

i really dont care if they breed or not, i just like how they pop in an out of their little shells

[TaTeR ToT]

just googled T. Brichardi's, they are SWEET!!!

if i can find some, i will get some.

how big is this tank with your tangs?
i want to do something like this, but space is an issue.

It's a 20 gallon Sea Clear acrylic tank I got at a clearance sale at petco some years ago.

If you need shells cheap, try Hobby Lobby. You can get jars of them for just a few bucks.

really, well, i may be setting up a small tang community in my 36g when i get it.
i love the seaclear tanks, they are gorgeous!
the clarity is really nice, and i like that they are acylic.
i almost bought a 40g seaclear off of craigslist, but i decided to pass, this was back when i had 7x tanks in my room
my dad was like you bring one more tank in thyis house and its your arse

so i reluctantly passed

Time to get a place of your own.
