First topic message reminder :

Hey.New here and just getting back into hobby. Looking for advice and ideas on tank setup. Have an established community tank in basement with tropical fish (37 g) and a new 55 g upstairs. Am cycling with zebras and seeding with media from established tank. Would like to do cichlidds upstairs but not sure. Have a blood parrot downstairs (don't hate, only researched about them once I got home. Store was more than happy to sell). I would like to move him up into bigger tank but not sure what to put him with... sorry just randomness just looking for some ideas.

Well to soothe my pain and frustration decided to get a few shots of some of my aquatic pals. Here's a few shots. Enjoy.

Did enjoy! Thanks for sharing. Hopefully your female kribensis will not be so picky with the next guy you bring home.

Nice looking fish!

Fingers crossed. Two males in with the female. She's showing off but no violence. I assume I will have to separate out one male soon.

How are these two new males doing in the tank?

Well. The one male has relinquished himself to the corner and seems quite depressed if that makes sense. The other male and the female seem to be getting jiggy with it or something. I have been enjoying the show for a while now. Got one photo attached here but doesn't really do it justice.
