  • 2nd take at Tropheus.

    After awhile of being out of the game it feels good to be back! So far it's a small step....

    So far the only aggression of seeing is males defending their cave. But no constant chasing. Everyone is eagerly eating. Theres 2 males that are 5-6''. Not sure of the ratio but so far so good. Changed the 20k bulb out for a 14k and their showing a more natural color instead of blue.

    My next steps are:
    90g or bigger tank
    Add 12-15 more Lufubus
    1-2x Eheim 2262 (depending on how big of a tank)
    A Pair of Goby Cichlids and/or Julidochromis
    Vortech powerhead???

    Watch in 720p.. Video is kind small from a cellphone

          Nah, they're Africans. They can deal with the bright light just fine.

          Ever see Africans wear sunblock? Nope.

                      Petrified wood.

                      I only have 9 Lufubus in there. So far it's ok no crazyness, i'll get more soon. I'm also waiting for a deal on a nice tank to pop up.

                      Hesitating on adding more until I upgrade the tank.

                      Too bad I couldn't get the male to come out from his cave. He's HUGE and beautiful.

                      EK you had like 100 fish in a 30g lol.
