Do you keep Tropheus? What variants? What setup & tankmates?

Do you currently keep Tropheus? If so, what variants? And what tank size and tank mates?

Here's what I keep...

Tropheus MOORII NKONDE -> 16 fishes [unknown M/F ratio] -> 150-gallon [48" x 24" footprint] --> Tankmates: Tanganicodus Irsacae, Panaque Nigrolineatus

Tropheus MOORII NSUMBU -> 12 fishes [unknown M/F ratio] -> 55-gallon [48" x 12" footprint] --> Tankmates: Synodontis Petricola

And now, someone else can take their turn!

No , I DID keep duboisi in a variety of tanks, usually with some golden labs I also had.

Nope, but i'd love to get a 75gal+ for a small colony.

 

[Orion]

No but I want too!

I had a 55gallon setup with 12 T. moorii Mpulungu (4m/8f). Tankmates: breeding group of Psuedotropheus demasoni.

Currently working on getting my 75gallon setup for Trophs...just trying to find a good stock and the type I want. Once I find what I want, theyll be ordered

Tropheus MOORII NSUMBU -> 12 fishes [unknown M/F ratio]

Fish were 2.5" or so, and approx. two years old, according to the previous owner. I only had them about 4 months. Sold for $125 CA ($109 US) to a fellow local collector who is returning to Tropheus after a few years away from them.

Signature updated for my current stock of fish.
