1- Nimbochromis venustus
2- dimidiochromis compressiceps
3 -dimidiochromis compressiceps (same fish as photo 2)
4- lichnochromis acuticeps aka malawI gar.
5 - cyrtocara moorI aka blue dolphin
6 - Nimbochromis livingstonii
And last but not least my most rare cichlid
7. Tyrannochromis nigriventer

In this same tank I also keep a Taiwan reef, Orange hybrid peacock, placidochromis milomo, and a few other cichlid I also keep a 12 inch rhino pleco with them

Absolutely beautiful fish they look fintastic!!!

 

That sounds like an amazing tank! Beautiful fish. Thanks for telling me the species, I had seen that one cichlid before, but didn't know the name. Thanks for the compliment on my bolis.

Here are some pics I just took of them begging for nls

 

Metriaclima sp. "dolphin" alpha male F1 my favorite

 

Wow that black and blue is breathtaking

 

Wow, that's a gorgeous fish Leodiaz. Fishpatch I know this is a cichlid thread, but I must say your pleco is really nice.

 

Thank you!! I recently added him and he is the first pleco species I've had do well with the chiclids I have in that tank!!!

 

Wow that black and blue is breathtaking

Thank you he can turn on and off his color but now that he is the alpha he has his color on 95% of the time. And he can get even bluer when he is trying to be dominant.

 

tyguy7760 Can I ask how big your Laetacara Dorsigeras are? I'm considering them in the future. Looks like you have them in a community - they look great!

 

Youtube was being silly. Put the video on photobucket

Mine are about 2.25 inches from nose to beginning of the tail. The crazy thing about these fish are they never look the same. Their coloration changes all the time. I'm not sure if that is typical for the species or not

 

I feel like I'm a little late to the party, but here's a pic of one of my Apistogramma Borellii

 

He's got tons of metallic green!! Nice fish!

 

JeffK, that's a nice looking fish! Is he the same one on your avatar photo?

Thank you! Yes - he's the same one - "opal" variety.

 

Chiapaheros grammodes, one of my favourites. I had one brought into a shop. It jumped from its bucket into the sump of a freezing cold plant tank (you honestly couldn't keep your hand in for long it was that cold). It didn't want to come out again, lol. Dumped back into warm, took it all in her stride....

 

As always Hampalong is correct. I've had him for 3 years and most of the time he plays well with the others.

 

Those fish look great!!!

 

Those are gorgeous!

 

As always Hampalong is correct.....

There's a trick to that...
