Welcome Herc, I see you have an NZ native in your list, the Crans Bully, do you have that in a special tank or what??

Welcome Herc. A nice lot of fish you have there. Look forward to the pics.

Hi there Tom..

Nice when the family joins up.. Welcome to you both.

Great pics you just posted, and real healthy looking fish.

Thanks all,

I have been keeping the crans bully for over 3 years now and its become very tame, it was about 5cm when I caught it in the stream, there were millions at the time. The tank is about 50 liters, 600x300x300mm Its on the small side to be honest but I will upgrade one day. I will try to find some pics later. It will eat anything that sinks but I feed it shrimp pellets, peeled shrimp, and some raw lemon fish when i have it + any small snails in the tank. It also enjoys earthworms

I do frequent water changes using tank water with with a neutral pH.

Festive Cichlids are awsome!

Nice to have you with us
