    Hi all. I'd like to share my new tank with you. Really is a dream come true. I've been looking for Neolamprologus Multifasciatus for the longest time. I joined the Tropical Aquariums SA Forum in December and found someone who sold some to me.

    I'll load a picture of the tank before the fish and a picture taken just after the fish were added thanks to @JvH aka (FishBait) for supplying me with some extremely healthy fish. I truly appreciate all the effort you went through. d74b015e9f9f2264c01ab0ce15d2165f.jpgfafeb2ea9d80cc10d92b186fbd8ead15.jpg

    Yes, I am hoping to see some breeding behaviour. The whole process regarding the shells just fascinates me.

    Thanks everyone. The males have started moving sand around this morning. I'm getting a lot of satisfaction from watching them!

    Hi, the fish are all doing great. Settled in great. Now just waiting for the breeding.

    I bought them from FishBait on this forum.

    My Multi's started breeding about a month ago! Have 3 fry swimming in and out of shells at the moment. Seriously excited! Started doubting everything I've read about Multi's after 6 months of nothing.

    Hi there.

    Do you still have your multis and if so can I please buy some juveniles or anything from you. My colony died and I can't find them anywhere.

    Regards
