planted Tanganyika cichlids tank

[janlo]

the tank is still in a stage of experimentation.Still trying to fight the big algae bloom that i had, so the plants are more easy fast growers.

in fact theres a yellow lab from malawi so its not a true tang tank( sorry for the purists)
the other inhabitants are:
Lamprologus brevis
Cyprichromis leptosoma
Julidochromis dickfeldi
Altolamprologus calvus

here are some old macro shots :

That tank setup looks very natural...it's obvious you put a lot of work into it. *SUNSMILE*
Nice pics too---the fish in that second pic you posted in your previous post looks like it could really take a chunk outta something if it wanted to!

What kind of snail is that in your avatar pic?

Big Vine

thanx
big vine: the secong fish is a brevis, and yes hes a though guy when you put your hand near his shell, wich he protects. The bite is not verry painful though but it can be surprising when you dont expect it.

the snail is a neritina snail, it doesnt eat the plants.

Great looking tank - very cool.

Very nice!
Love the brevis!
Funny though, I know that last one superficially looks like J. dickfeldi but before I read the species name you'd posted I thought it was a Chalinochromis bifrenatus .
