Hey, going to be setting up a couple Tanganyikan tanks and wanted your opinion. I'm coming off a 5yr break from fish keeping so wanted to double check things. All fish hopefully will be tank raised and will be bought small
29 Gallon
6 Multies or 6 Similis for breeding
6 Altolamp Compressiceps (will either end up keeping a pair or 1 Comp in this tank and move the rest to a 180g or 125g
6 Cyprichromis Leptisomo blue flash ( for breeding) possibly could stay or move to 125g
* looking at Caribsea Super Naturals (any input on color)? Or Pool filter sand
* adding crushed coral to help with PH....... my water is around 7.2ph
180 Gallon (6x2x2)
8-10 Frontosa Burundi Colony (suggestions on how many)
4-5 Altolamp Comps from the 29g ? If they would work, if not will move remaining to 125 gallon
* will use Pool Filter Sand if I can find it, if not it would be the Caribsea Super Naturals
* adding crushed coral and Texas Holy Rock to help with PH...... my water is around 7.2
125 Gallon (4x2x2) *Hoping to not set up right now*
Remaining Altolamps from the tanks about
All Cyprichromis from the 29 gallon (add another 6-10)
Rest of stocking would be thought of later
