Hi - Nicaraguans (Copora nicaraguense) will be fine with blue acaras in a tank that has enough room. Be aware though that male C. nicaraguense get reasonably sized (mine is 10" or so) so you'll need plenty of room. Nice fish! HTH

Hi Again - Thanks for the welcome. Since Bill bought it up - I currently am trying to breed a number of the Neolamprologus brichardi morphs. In my collection at present I have two forms of Neolamprologus brichardi (one from Kiku - see the pic below) and one from Pemba. I also have two forms of Neolamprologus olivaceous/pulcher which I am currently trying to identify. I like these fish because no only do they look elegant but the step breeding makes them a pleasure to keep, the "one-pot-cooking" of breeding cichlids I guess . Here's a pic of my female N. brichardi 'Kiku' with some fry - hope you like it.

Hi Guys - My name is YeW (David) I run the Sydney Cichlid Page across the river . I am interested in setting up a new forum system (I currently am with ezboard) at my website and thought I'd have a look at phpBB (along with some others) - what better place to start than at a fellow fish site! My fish interests lie with the step breeding Neolamps and Julies (although I have a soft spot for Chalinochromis and Telmatochromis also). I have kept a range of Apistos in the past - but am now sworn off them - thanks to what we call MAD (mysterious Apisto death). To the admins here - great work! Nice site!
