Showing off a few

For those of you that don't know...

I have recently gotten back into the aquarium hobby after a several years break. I originally got back into it thinking I was going to raise Angels. I have since given up trying to fight the city water and decided to go with cichlids, since our city water pretty much comes from Lake Malawi.

I'm not up on all my species yet, as I'm new to this mbuna thing...

This is one of my Kenyi females



The Kenyi male...he pretty much rules the roost



This is a fish I got a few weeks ago. I ordered the Prestige Package from Bluegrass Aquatics. I got a bag of fish and didn't really know what I got. I'm pretty sure this is a Red Zebra, but I could be wrong. He's tiny, but cool.



Thought this was a pretty cool shot of my mystery albino

Very handsome specimens, Holmes!! Keep posting pics!!

ok - no doubt you are a great photographer!

Thanks, guys! Photography is a passion of mine. I'd say I'm probably a semi-pro. I still have a benefits job, but do supplement my income by teaching a few photography workshops throughout the year. I usually shoot landscape and scenic type photos. I have shot at the TN & Atlanta Aquariums, but this is the first time I've tried it on a smaller scale

Can you tell me about that prestige package? Also would you do business with Bluegrass again?

[davidtcb1]

Yes, great photos! Contenders for photo of the month for sure!

Did you try breeding angels? I have some that spawn regularly, but they eat the babies after they become free swimming a few days. I use HSV tap water, no softening.

I'm glad you had a good experience with Bluegrass. I had a really bad one. Sick deformed fish, it was terrible.

i bought directly from eddie in louisville and had no problems.
