Lol but i like my peat water river fish =/ Flat fish are awesome! 
hehe. I LOVE my Clavus and Comp. though
I really like the Eretmodus species from lake tang, that what you are talking about Orion?
I'm panicing. You keep buying fish when you are already wayyy overstocked. Lets just hope these make it to breeding age, not only do they take forever to get there but they might become a snack for one of your larger cichlids. Oh and Fronts don't form just a pair. They like to be a breeding group so ending up with a pair from just 2 small juvis, a non sexable size, is a long shot. I have to say though, Fronts are one of the best cichlids....African wise.

Yup that be the ones! We are VERY close to buying us our first house (SCORE), so it will wait a while, but I've been wanting a tank with tropheus and those in it for a while now. Figure at least a 150, bigger if I can. Man that would be one beauty of a tank. Also very, very soon I hope, I should be getting some white calvus. Ive got my fingers crossed, agian, this really depends on the house right now. Sorry, I love my fish, but they will still be out there once we get settled into a house.
Oscar, you have so much enthusiasm for the hobby, which is very admirable, but what he was tring to point out is that you are tring to do so much with such a limited amount of space and funding that in a very short time you will be overwhelmed, and ultimatley set yourself up for failure. Nobody likes to fail, but its offen better to try and focus on one thing at a time rather than spead yourself so thin that none of your fish gets the attention they need. Pick one thing, and do it good. Pace yourself! I dont think that these fish are going to be going away anytime soon.
