So, i havent been on in a while, sorry.
i kept on writing .com and .ca for the cichlidhaven until i gave up.
i got a message on my e-mail and it was .net (silly me) and i got on :D

so here are some pics of my Tangs

One of my Lamprologus Ornatipinnis
sadly half of them got killed :( and im giving the other 2 away. one of the most beautiful shellies ive ever kept


My Dominant paracyprichromis Nigripinnis
hes now a sub dominant male :( not as colorful as before. hes 3inches right now


One of my Multie males
one of the most yellow ive seen on most multies these days


just one of my many yellowfin ocellatus fry


and their mommy :D
Scary~


planning to get rid of some of them for space :( i hate getting rid of my fishes.
i end up regreting it. but it has to be done.
the way i see things is..
if this didt happen, then i wouldnt have gotten these.
so by getting rid of some of my prized fishes, in return, i get other great tangs to try.

looking to increase my paracyp numbers, maybe double it, or triple it, even better.
but i at least need 8 :)

thats it for my tangs. i will update if i get any new ones

Sean

I think those pics look great !!!!

thanks :)
but they arent as good as other peoples.
i need to buy myself a better camera

multies the Clap well done! What type of camera are you using that you need a new one? Your pictures are very good! Your fish look great too!

Very nice fish and pics! the Clap

I am also glad you rediscovered us again! Bouncy

The pic of the mom was cool! Good Job

Keep posting your pics as you can and update us
when you get some more or new tangs! Now this should be good!

Don't tell Derek, but we need some more Tang lovers on the forum! Wooo hoo!!

lol!
everyone keeps malawis :(
we need more tang people here

Not everyone keeps malawi fishy !

Very nice fish and pix multies the Clap

Your camera is good trust me, take a look at my pix, that's a sh-- camera i'm using, the worse camera on CH ever Prboy

I was looking at your first pic for sooo long, kept thinking there was an octopus in the background Giggly if you look right in the middle top of the pic you see an eye, then i realized it was a fish roll eyes

I think the pictures look great, multies.

I wish I could blame my camera for most of my bad pictures, but I think in my case it's operator error. Giggly

geelite, i did the same thing with the octopus, before I realized it was a 2nd fish.

those pics are the only decent ones that ive got from at least 500
its even harder when you put on macro, they always come up blurry.

and cturner, i do know that, but more people go malawi then tanganyikans

heres a full pic of my ocellatus :)
male is BIG BIG BIG!

and i didt cut the picture, i took it like this! she flares at me because she thinks im going to take her fry away. i did it 2 or 3 days ago, an theres STILL FRY IN THE TANK. there is at least 10 more fry in the tank. i was so sure that i had most of them.


heres one of the more crappy pics. its just to show how big my male is.
compare him to the coconut shell. oh and this was them trying to spawn in my 35G. it ended in a failure

Sean, any Tanganjika lover is a friend of mine. Your pictures are great and it would be nice if you could show us some more.

I love the Nigripinnis Good Job Good Job Good Job

thanks :)
know where i can find any QUALITY adults?
every adult ive seen(stores) looks like crap.
i saw a sub adult female at big als one day,
saw a group of them with some altolamprologines, and guess what happened??
the alto's took out a bit less then half of them, 2 of them had no tails, 1 had half a tail, i can see blood on the fish and they were SELLING THEM!
FOR 400$ FOR THE WORTHLESS GROUP! i wanted to take one of them home with me because i wanted to save the best one i thought would survive,
they said,..
no we are only selling them as a group.
THERE IS NO GROUP! ALMOST HALF OF THEM ARE DEAD!


got a chance to get some nice gracilis, i dont think im strong enough to resist the temptation of getting some nice white tailed brichardi.

i always loved my pulchers..
multies are going out, and probably some gracilis or caudopunctatus are going in.

will post more pics when i get a chance to get some decent shots.
unless you guys want to some pics of me measuring my paracyps!
i got pics of when my male was around 2.5inches a couple months ago, and i measured him 2nights ago and hes 3inches now.
or i can show you the developing of my male paracyp.
**note** pics are horrible, so horrible that it will probably burn your eyes.
they are below my standards and most likely below yours

Those are stunning....I really love the first fish.

thank you :)
half of them got killed though :( im sad now..

some more updates on pics.
sub-dominant female with female, super shabby cave! his cave is like nothing compared to the dominant males cave.


Lamprologus Multifasciautus tank, no longer here, sold em to my friend.


heres my male paracyp that i measured last week


my occie fry. very small, they lose their black pigmentation as they get older.
they become more gold.


a random pic of my friends Mpulungu cyp


and finally, Seans latest purchase, SNAILS :D got em for free! free is my best friend, sean cant live without the word Free

Nice update pix multies, especially the first one Good Job

I agree with Geelite, I like the first pic! the Clap

I'm sure the sub-dominant fish don't care if his cave
is "shabby" as you put it!

As long as the girls keep coming around, it don't matter! Giggly

just to show you guys how bad his cave is..
heres my tank, super old, super hard to keep, and super nice :)

I like it, its different...old is gold my friend Good Job

LOL!
its actually around 20years old mint condish:)
barley any scratches. and it was FREE :D
too bad it didt have a lid..
