shellies breed tho, and whats nice some are pairing fish,
ste you ever keep african cichlids?

No, iv never kept African lake cichlids, i keep and breed Pelvicachromis but they are more like south american (soft acidic water) the Mbuna and others arnt really suitable for my water, i cannot provide the ideal conditions easily so have never kept them. They are stunning though and the nearest to a freshwater reef tank as you can get. Thats something else ive never kept, Marine…..

I am contemplating setting up a small tank for shelldwellers in my fishroom and experimenting with hardwater.. Mine is extreamly soft straight out of the tap. The shelldwellers are the only ones at the minute that look really interesting..
