What are your thoughts on peacocks?

Would a 75 gallon be large enough and how many would you recommend? I know the mbuna stay a bit smaller than haps,

I'll look more into them! Honestly though, after keeping South American cichlids for a few years, the aggression and digging isn't a huge bother for me. The limestone tip is awesome! Thank you for your response!

So, unfortunately, my turtle has recently passed on. I had him for ten years and IDK how long the previous owners we got him from had him. I now have a 75 gallon tank that I'm going to turn into an mbuna tank. This will be the first time I've ventured into African cichlids and I know I want...

Not even close to maxing out.

I'm definitely leaning more towards some type of shrimp. Goby's look awesome as well!

I've got a 20 long and I'm considering making it a saltwater tank. Definitely not looking at a reef tank, was thinking more a fowlr tank. Was just looking for ideas on: 1. Equipment(,lights, heater, filter, etc.) 2. Livestock. Any and all input is welcome as are pics of your setups for inspiration.

As common as they are, I do love the blues

That's interesting! After looking them up, I'm questioning if I have the angulatus or rotunda us. They both look similar. Mine where silver when I got them though and they were smaller.

No, they are all over the place. They prefer the top, but, they definitely go everywhere. They definitely have a ton of energy

Purchased this Geo the other day .... I forgot what the exact species was.....cause I'm a dope who just gets excited and buys things(I know the general care of most geophagus) any ideas? I think it's a sveni from what I've seen but, I'm not 100%.

Absolutely! I wish I could get better pictures of them but....they don't stop moving lol. They're not widely available from what I can tell but, If you can find them and have the right setup for them, I highly recommend them!

I've had these guys for around a year now, they're very fun to watch and I never seem to find enough info on them so, here goes my attempt at a short guide for them as they're not widely found in the hobby. Dusky Narrow Hatchet fish (Triportheus angulatus) Native to the Amazon River basins...

Getting back into this. The tanks never went away but, I haven't posted online in a while. Started doing short videos and taking pictures again. Here's a few!
