I really like the Calvus! Nice colours!
Also the Neolamprologus Tretocephalus - the barring first made me think it was a Frontosa!

How are you making out with live plants in that tank? (it looks like live plants to me...)

Thanks for posting!

  Thanks guys. They are real plants. I was having serious problems with algae as you can see. It was a lot worse then it is now. I have cut the light in half and shortened the time on  as well. The beard algae is hard to remove though. I have one more tank to set up. A 55 gallon. after that I would have to get rid of furniture and that won't happen or my wife will get rid of me. Ha Ha

Yes I did sell the black calvus. He was difficult to part with but he was constantly attacking the yellow and I prefer the yellows. Of course now I'm setting up a 55 and would have been able to put him there so I will have to keep an eye open for a new black. I will be breeding cyps or paracyps and cylindricus in that tank. BTW the yellow's I got from you in the spring are starting to breed for me.
