Well I just fell in love with this Cichlid. What do you think??




And before anyone asks I have done research and I know how big he is gonna get and there are plans for a large tank in the future. :D

ahh...Earthdigger. I bought one once but he didn't survive the night in my tank :(. They are really spectacular. I see them every once in a while at the LFS and wish I could have one :) But I don't dare risk it again. I have a weird tank with cichlids for some reason, I can't even keep Angels in there, yet I have a Krib pair that are healthy as horses and a couple years old. Go figure.
Your's looks so healthy and robust! Good luck with it!!!! *thumbsup2

Thanks Guys!! He has made it through the night just fine. In fact he greeted me this morning. He is enjoying the space change from the little tank at the store. :D Him and the JDs are doing great. After removing the Jewels I have been seeing alot more of them. *SUPERSMIL

He was only $11. I was so excited to bring him home. :D He seems so happy now that he has more room. He likes to swim from side to side in the tank. Its almost like he bragging about the room. :D Its a big upgrade for him. He was in about an 8G tank at the store.

fishlvr: Thpse pics were taken just minutes after he was in the tank. Thats why he flared up.
