Pundamilia Nyererei, Eureka Red Peacock fry

[Kiko]

im currently feeding them twice a day... and it seems like there growing faster... only been a week and it looks like they grew 1/4 of an inch... =DDD

[Kiko]

i will be buying more o cats, 2 more juhli cory cats, and probably put like 10 assassins snails in there with other snails too... =DDD

There really isnt much that can go with them as small groups, but your tank is pretty stocked, so you can probably put anything with them since the aggression will be spread around. But a fish that would at least be able to dish it back would be Hap SP.44 "thick skin"/"red tail hap" I don't have mine anymore, but it would still be a decent pick up if you can find some smaller ones. They grow faster than what you have since they can get 6"+ but they really slow down at 3-4"

ok... nvm then... ima keep an eye out for other fishes that will go along with these... my tank just doesnt look vibrant enough... only 3 shows colors the rest is like a minnow like color... a hint of blue but thats about it... i love the 3 colorful ones!! lol

I have 8 left, between 1.25" and 1.5". It's going to be a good 2 months before they reach 2".

In terms of going together, what do you have now - Like 18 or so Nyererei/Lithochromis, and soon to be set up in a 55gal? With a tank being that busy, you could treat it like a malawi tank and just stock it up to where there won't be individual aggression. The Eureka reds would be okay, now if it was set up as low stock tank where they're given a chance to gain territories, I wouldnt add them. If I put a breeding pair of Eurekas in a 55gal with a breeding Nyererei pair. Eureka male would hiding behind a filter tube the whole time.
