Ames Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Hey Guys I am searching for some Cynotilapia SP Hara Galireya Reef fish in Brisbane or QLD, I have heard these are really hard to find if not impossible? would the publican be a good substitute? I have demasoni, red and red zebras and planning on adding some maingano as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supercobwe Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Not too many of Cynotilapia SP Hara Galireya around and yes Kingsizei (publican) is quiet similar but all the fish you keep it above are aggressive fish, depend on how big your tank and how many fish in the tank but I wouldn't recommend maingano if you have a small tank. Good luck Cheers, Ryan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supercobwe Posted March 12, 2012 Report Share Posted March 12, 2012 Hey Ryan my tank is a 5x2x2.5 Then should be fine For African Malawi the key is over stock with good filtration, I got 40+ fishes in my 5x2x2 with 30+ different species. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tutters187 Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 Metriaclima Pulpican is probably the closest to the Afra looks pretty similar to me. If you want any Afra/s apart from albino or cobue try sydney shops and forums like ace forum Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
raycam01_au Posted March 13, 2012 Report Share Posted March 13, 2012 really wish peeps would keep away from the key to africans is to overstock, yes good filtration is gr8 but overstocking is not always the answer works sometimes, but definately is not the be all end all, i never ever overstocked tanks, and never ever had an issue with africans of any sort, get to know and understand your fish and where they come from, and you will be fine, best of luck finding them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
