Some fish pics

Here's some of the fish in my malawi tank. Hope you like

 

They look stunning Morak.... I didn't know you could keep Malawi's and plants in the same tank actually. I always thought that the Malawis eat the plants.

Just a stupid question, how many fish do you have, and how many litre tank... that tank looked a bit overcrowded.

 

I don't know Malawi's that well at all but they look very pretty

 

Don't know how many are in there now. Plants don't last very long in there and I have another planted tank.

Tank is about 440l, canister filter and internal.

 

Zoom -you can put anubias and Vallis Gigantea in with Malawis and Oscars - the secret is to plant them between a few rocks that the fish cant lift

 

OK... that makes sense.

Thanks Zaf. I'm not really into the Malawis... not sure if I like them or not... but I have seem all the Malawi tanks in LPS have half eaten plants.

 

sigh, i'm pretty darn sure i saw giant vallis on that blacklist link vee gave me in my tank-thread. just be sure

eish, it looks like the anubuis is too
oh yeah, that list is from http://www.phish.co.za/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=116&Itemid=1

 

those fish look great dude

@Ferryman - yes it is on the blacklist but it is the only plant that makes my Predator tank look pretty.......hehe but I think it is going to be removed off the new blacklist not sure though I might be wrong...

 

Looks like everything is blacklisted. I'm sure almost everyone has something that is blacklisted in their tanks, I know i'm guilty.:blink1:

 

I've got giant vallis as well - but it was locally harvested

 

Lol. Two of my three plants at present are on the list. :doh:

 

As Meatloaf would say....'two outta three ain't bad'

 

There's still room for improvement LOL

 

yeah! i'll pluck out the vallis and go for the giant kind... be a rebel...

 

Its not how big it is, but how you use it :blink1:

 

:rofl:
