i had occies they were sweet

[DiscusKid]

Thanks, Ill give them a call tomorrow

[Fire_chair]

I would try Ultimate Fish on 2920.

[DiscusKid]

Now heres the fun question, who has some that they can sell me or what LFS has em?

[Fire_chair]

Maybe 10-12 Paracyps.

[DiscusKid]

I think im leaning more towards Paracyprichromis Nigripinnis, and Lamprologus Ocellatus.

[DiscusKid]

Yes. Paracyps could work, though. A small school of Paracyps, a few shell dwellers, and a pair of Caudiopunks would be good. You'd have action all over the place.

How many Paracyps could i keep if i did a species tank?

I now keep some Lake Victorian cichlids. You should look them up. I have pundamilia nyererei. I am waiting on some haplochromis "ruby green". Both of which can be kept in 29g. I only know three people who keeps these, they are beautiful fish.

Those are really nice

I do not know much about cyprichromis. It is not a fish I have kept. I will tell you. I now keep some Lake Victorian cichlids. You should look them up. I have pundamilia nyererei.

+1 on the Victorian Cichlids. I keep the Haplochromis sp. 44

[Fire_chair]

So would the Cyprichromis be out of the question?

Yes. Paracyps could work, though. A small school of Paracyps, a few shell dwellers, and a pair of Caudiopunks would be good. You'd have action all over the place.

[Gapzero]

Any of the Neolamprologus will be fine. For example in that 29, you can have 4 or 5 of any of the brichardi complex. They will live and breed and be ok. Just put teo inches of PFS and then on one side a barnacle cluster or piece of holey rock, and on the other put a pile of shells. leave the middle open.

[mark razmandi]

if i had a 29g lying around i would breed something in it

[DiscusKid]

so i cant keep any of the fish i listed? should i dump the idea and try something else?

[mark razmandi]

29 is small
