huzzy Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Just wondering what everyones fav fish (cichlid or other) is at the moment? At the moment i have an obsession with a group of Haplochromis Brownae i have had since fry. The power struggles and group dynamics is facinating.

mezzacam Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 One of my most favourite fish would have to be the convict... But my favourite that I keep atm would have to be my leptos. Maybe because they just bred? lol. Nah they are extremely energetic and their colours are starting to come out - real nice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamesF Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Definately Ps. demasoni. IMO the best looking of the Mbuna and one of the best looking out of all the africans. I think their aggresive behaviour appeals the most, there's always something interesting happening in a tank full of these guys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have fish often so that may change soon. My family loves fish for dinner Regards William Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pride Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 I'm having alot of fun with my oscars at the moment. They're just so owner responsive and greedy buggers. When I feed treats like whole thawed out whitebait or meal worms one will launch almost whole body right out of the water to take it out of my hand drenching myself in water.

hathoor Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Oh, that kind of fish. Sorry. Mine would be manganos, mainly because of their vivid blue colour. They're not overly aggressive either. Regards William Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bruce Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 I would have to say Foai/Furcifer's. Awesome colour and behaviour. Bruce Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ash Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 I love my synspilums Awesome colouration & owner interaction/personality similar to an oscar or RD RDs are my 2nd fav, their tankmate killing habits are wearing thin though. Convicts are an honourable mention, so much attitude in such a tiny body! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foai Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 I am fond of my foai. Like most tangs they are very peaceful. I got rid of all my malawis because all they did was fight. David Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trofius Posted May 3, 2006 Share Posted May 3, 2006 Dave i am with you mate, but foi are nice as are the sandsifters and, well most tangs.....I guess if you see what fish i have the most pics of it will give you a fair idea... Duboisi i am sure you can get some shipped to you by someone in sydney, failing that i have about 10-20 here ~2-3cm not real sure on numbers as too many fish in the tank.
