Lake Tanganyikan Biotope

[whiskerbreed]

Hey peeps, thought of sharing my 2ft Lake Tanganyika tank before I go overseas (Tekong).

Deco:
- Granite slates
- Granite rocks
- Black pebbles

Substrate:
- Fine coral sand

Inhabitants:
- 5 x 2"-2.5" Cyphotilapia sp. "Burundi" (Burundi frontosa)

Layout


4 of 5 Frontosas


Left View


These fronts are normally out swimming in the open and flaring at each other.
Just when I wanted to take pictures they went into hiding!


Planning to get 1 or 2 pairs of Neolamprologus brichardi or Neolamprologus pulcher.
What do you guys think?

Urgh!!
Somehow I couldn't post the Left View image (a vertical image).
Can a verticle image be posted or only can post horizontal images?

Wow nice fishes. What do you feed them? Do they need high pH?

[illumnae]

i think these fish are most comfortable in a ph of around 8?

Thanks!
Feed them frozen BW and Hikari-Saki sinking pellets.


Yup, they need a high pH of around 8 or higher.

Nice and simple.
Wouldn't the frontosa bully them?

[whiskerbreed]

Bully who?
The brichardis and pulchers?
I guess so..


What would be a nice fish to comm with fronts?
