    Got the fishes ordered for the first graders, and I'm excited. Coming from Frybabies. A pair of Apisto. Hauswell, six cardinal tetras, and six Poecillus; little bumblebee cats. (some can move to the 55 here at home when they get bigger.
    Oh.,....and whilst I was Frybabying online, I got a herd of juvie Tropheus Ilangi.
    Early birthday gift to myself. ;)

    You might do a bit of reading on tropheus. From what I know, they need to be in a big tank and overcrowded to lessen aggression.

    The tropheus will be in my 150g here at home, and I'm getting 15-20 of them. :)

    I'm sorry; didn't mean to be ugly. I guess people didn't know I had this big-ass tank here at home that's all Tanganyikan.
    And ain't that just a visual image, though; a big herd of Tropheus in a 10g tank. Wonder how long the glass would hold up? :)
