Haha thanks bud!

Thanks bud, yes that centre piece is 20kg+, the other 2 pcs are 10kg ea.

Haha thanks buds. Burundi is just Burundi la....mai confuse people le. :p Those fronts had been with me 2yrs+ now btw.

do fronts fight alot? very inspiring setup

Thanks bud. Fronts are gentle giants imho. They fight abit at times but never seen one die from attack/stress amongst themselves. It is the some OTHER types of tanganyikans that are more aggressive and may kill them. But generally, fronts are tough too.

do you control the ph in ur tangan and other africa cichlid tanks?

how do you go about it??

need more info since i am going to start one soon.:o:o

Bud, our Singapore tap water is ideal to keep most fishes without treatment, that includes tanganyikan fishes. However, if you really wanna your tangans to thrive and display their awesome colouration, then you have to raise the water perimeters (ph/kh) as according to what's best for them. However, their genes also play a part in their colouration....that's why some people only buy wild caught fishes as too much inbreeding in f's may result in fishes losing their traits (colour/sizes/etc).

Personally, I do NOT use anything except anti-chlorine (Prime) as I feel that our water is good enough for them. Using more stuffs will take up more $/time/effort as I do very frequent WCs. However, from my experiments, I concluded that tanganyikans needed a sand base tank to thrive and survive. IMO, coral sand will be ideal for tanganyikans.

Hope it helps and welcome and good luck in keeping tanganyikans!

P/S: Tropheus is NOT an easy fish to keep. No doubt they are attractive and pleasing to the eyes but they succumb to diseases/stress easily. Pls read up and understand more on tropheus before venturing into it. Cheers. :)

Yup will read up (in fact doing it now! ;) )
now the challenge is shifting my active tanks to accomodate the future 4feet tanks.. headache...:(

Simple solution

1) Sell existing livestocks
2) De comm the tanks.
3) Buy loads of sand
4) Populate all existing and future tank with tangas.

:D:D:D

Jokes aside, think of it as an overhaul maintenance. Good opportunity to clean , add, scape the existing tanks
