    Various types of Peacocks and a kenyi (Blue with dark stripes). In the tank I have peacocks, a yellow lab, two kenyi's, a chinese algae eater, rainbow shark, and an upside down catfish.

    I just love the pictures of the Cichlids. Please post more. They are in my opinion, a smarter looking fish than many breeds. I can appreciate those creators!

    Hi,

    Thanks for the pointer to your video. I watched it and really enjoyed it. I recommend it to others as it is so full of beautiful fish.

    Canon Digital Rebel XTi :D It's a pretty awesome camera although if I had a macro lens the picture would be 10 times better.

    Yeah, African Cichlids usually need a pretty big tank.

    Good choice. Those guys only get to be about 4". They're a newer cichlid variety. I believe they were discovered in the early 1990's. They can be kept in a tank as small as 36".
