gingerbeer Posted February 27, 2012 Report Share Posted February 27, 2012 The one thing I love about Lake Tang is the diversity, and in that size tank you can show it. You have the rock dwellers, the schooling fish, the shellies and the open sand dwellers. Some of the rock dwellers like the brichardi's are like rabbits and in a community will quickly outspawn everything else. I like the julie for therre behaviour in following the rock face. Shellies at the moment I like the black occies. open sand dwellers and schooling fish I have no knowledge from having kept them. I would suggest get onto Shon, he can help you with knowledge.

raycam01_au Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 Neolamprologus leleupi both orange and yellow types, Neolamprologus tretocephalus, black calvus, gold comp, gold headed comp, Julidochromis Regain, some Neolamprologus brichardi and some shellies on the bottom dwellers. I hope you dont mean all of these together Super? with your gold head comps a lovely companion fish would be some of the cyprichromis species, they are a mid to top level, so you will gain a super attractive fish, fast active n beautiful, when they spawn, most will survive and some will be food for the Comps, macrops also will compliment. Neo Brichardi not a good fish for that scenario if you want peaceful, I have used Xeno's Flavs, n spilos in the past and they worked well, as long as the tank has a good mix of hidey holes noooks and crannies you will be able to play around with a few species, that tank size will allow you to do some good mixes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
