Very nice Infamious

InfamousRedlineZ nice group of fish you have there. They will be beautiful when fully grown and are already showing some nice colors for you. Great pieces of holey rock too. The tank will look awesome when you put sand substrate in. Are you going to paint the background or put something on it?

I assume you will be moving the nimbochromis fuscotaeniatus breeding group to another tank so as not to have a female in your all male mix?

I am not a stocking person and especially not with the haps and peacocks but I noticed you listed 2x Borlyi Red Fin Kandango, will you keep both or move/rehome one of them also? I don't have experience with the all males tanks but my readings seem to indicate that 2 or more of the same males can cause troubles with your mix also. Your guys seem pretty happy now in the video so maybe that will not be an issue.

Thanks for sharing and I look forward to seeing it when the sand substrate is in.

Thank guys. Yeah I total forgot about painting the back before I setting the tank up so now I have to just put someone on the back now. As for the fusco I will be moving them to a way bigger tank (My reason for a bigger tank in the future > ) if I was to really breed them and yes having a female in a all male tank is bad and as for my Borlyi. I was thinking have 2 was a bad idea but it came out that both of them patrol the tank and keep everyone calm. Im super happy with them! THANKS TO NICK FOR THEM SEXY AND AWESOME RED FIN! hahaha

" Loaded all pictures together " *EDITED*

LOVE that taiwan reef!!!!!! however i would question the legitimacy of that "red top" lithobate. looks like the run of the mill yellow blaze variety. either way you know im in love with your haps. its something i ALWAYS wanted to try but never had the... well you know . as others have said definitely dump the females in the tank or you will continue to see issues, may even wake up to a cpl dead fish one day. keep the pics coming and thanks for sharing!

Thanks Anthraxx. I'm positive that its a red top lithobate because I got it from Kevin at a place for pet and in person the blaze is more of a darker orange than yellow. You got any pictures of your yellow blaze and blue dolphin

Lookin good. That german red would look great in that tank too haha. If you want any more let me know.

this is the best one i could find, you can see the two lithos next to each other (both males, 1 dom, 1 subdom)

They look great Anthraxx! Want to sell one

Thanks Nick! Im actually trying to get rid of my otter point, blue neon and eureka red. but thanks for the offer! Ill keep your german red in mind for sure

sry both groups were sold off to a member on here. Orthopod was his username. GL getting in contact with him (i have his number but feel wierd about giving that out)

oh yeah forgot you told me in the other thread lmao yeah its cool thanks for his username. I got 1 more pic of the lithobate showing great color in the face. I wish my phone would capture a better picture of the blue in his body and tail.

Heres my flavescent showing great yellow and black on the fin!

i cant wait to see him once hes "turned on", i swear thats how it worked for all the litho's ive had color up on me. all of a sudden one morning just BAM gorgeous fish. sure the blue slowly trickles in but it seems like just all of a sudden they turn on the blue. im still skeptical on that "red top" as kevin originally sold me a cpl lithos back in the day (ended up being yellow blaze's) gorgeous male that ended up with master chi if im not mistaken. maybe he has pics?

I would be very sad if he turns out to be a yellow. The last all male tank I had, had a WC red top from Kevin and it was absolutly beautiful! One of my favorite haps. Their color combo just match so well haha

I'm going to have an some extra juvenile male Aulonocara baenschi Nkhomo Reef ''Yellow Regal''s if you are interested...only about 1 1/2 to 2 inches now. I purchased to get a breeding group and I have two extra males. Of course, these are in "yellow" color group so not sure if they are something you are interested in or not. Oh...and no charge for one if you want one for your group.

Nice group of fish. It's good to see pics of Africans!

I don't know what it is about them, but the flavescent have always been a favorite. Make sure to post pics when he's fully colored.

OMG cichlid-gal your so nice! I would love to take them in! haha

thanks Betty! Yeah I dont really see much african pictures. I will do my best to get better pictures for you guys once they all start to color up! Specially that flavescent for you Betty!

I'm sending one your way (and very happy to do that as I see you have a good home for your boys) if you think he will work out with your group...PM sent. And that means I have one extra male left I think...so if anyone is interested, send me a PM as I do not want to trample Infamous's thread with my fish ... LOL

Thanks Cichlid-gal! I cant wait for them! It would be a great addition to my tank!
