  • Idea's of tank mates. Anyone?

    I have a 100 gallon with 2 leleupi's, 2 dubosi, 4 malawi peacocks, 2 labidochromis, 1 demosoni, L200 (green phantom), 1 synodontis eupterus feather fin squeaker,& nimbochromis venustus. I am aware I have a mix of tangs & malawi's but any suggestions of new tanks mates?
    Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness, that most frightens us. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine as children do. It's not just in some of us; it is in everyone. And as we let our own lights shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.

      Honestly just good tanks mates. Top would be good since my other fish do not occupy that area. I am however going to be purchasing another pleco just have not decided which one I want (for the bottom of course lol).

          How long they have been together?

          They have diff diets , what food you are feeding?

          Tropheus for most people that have keep them for long time would tell you they need to be in colonies. They are happier and healthy , their needs are really diff than the other fish you are keeping.

          If you like peacocks I would do all male show tank , they will show their best color in this way , l200 they are very sensitive to a high protein diet, compressiceps they swim at the top and are really nice , for bottom the pleco maybe a catfish , middle the peacocks :)

          55 gal- Ilangis ,clown pleco,abn pleco,rubber lip pleco

          55 gal-Canary cheek,Ikola,duboisi, and fry

            Some lrg daffodils would be a nice addition
            Cylindrcus too, caution on these they can be quit mean!
            Not seen to often in the is this guy Variablichromis moorii is pretty neat too.
            (Hmm i should get me some of these)
            A cool top open water fish which is like a foae but cheaper is Alonocranus dewintdti.

              Really, for a tank like that where it's just a random African community... just pack it in with anything that you like the looks of. Just make sure it doesn't get bigger than 5-6" and you'll be fine. Don't even bother trying to go for the individual fish needs. In terms of diets, There are hardly any fish that don't benefit from NLS. Feed that and you'll be fine. Don't over think it

                They have all been together since they where about 1 inch troph's just addedn four days ago. I feed NLS and brine shrimp sometimes live food but not very often. I also use algae disk for the troph's and bottom feeders.
