Its been a while since i have posted and a lot has changed, i have gone from a 3ft and a 4ft tank to have 8 4ft tanks a 6x2x2 and an 8x2x2.

I have a fish room set up and i have been breeding a few basic colonies (yellow labs, saulosi, blue pindani, acei ngara, acei tanzania, red empress) just to get familiar with it all before i move onto my more desirable colonies which are still growing out which are all Placidochromis, i currently have some deep water elektras, some mdoka white white lips and some phenochilus tanzania growing out and will be getting some giselle's and blue otters, as you can tell im a bit of a placidochromis whore

Fantastic list. :thumb

I really like that you have listed them using their scientific names. :clap Common names are very unreliable and can vary and cause confusion. This is particular the case for those starting out in the hobby.

It certainly impressed me. The beauty is that you know both.

Just a small thing but a key principal when using the scientific name is that the Genus (first part of the name) uses a capital letter and the species (second part) is lower case i.e. Protomelas taeniolatus.
