cichlidman2010 Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 Im planning to set up a Victorian tank this week for the 8-10 Brown Hap group-to-be im getting from Ryan. The substrate i currently have in the tank and that im going to use is a fine black substrate. I think this will be suitable for bringing out the colours in the fish. I may possibly have a small bag of crushed oyster shell in one of the filters too if needed. I have an Aquis 1200 on the tank so im thinking that should be decent enough for now. I have internal filters if needed in the future. I have t5 lighting currently on the tank, are there any light reuirements for these fish ? Also, what is the best diet to feed them ? Thought id do my final bit of Homework before the big week ahead. Any tips or ideas would be greatly appreciated Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REEVESTA Posted April 10, 2011 Report Share Posted April 10, 2011 I feed sinking cichlid gold, cichlid excel and spirulina flakes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ally07 Posted April 14, 2011 Report Share Posted April 14, 2011 You might also want to consider Hikari's smaller sinking carnivore pellets or larger massivore delite pellets. My convicts love them and the protein content is the highest of the Hikari range. Some people on the forum swear by it and say that their fish grew huge on massivore, so I'm testing the theory now on my sailfin pleco and ornate - I think my convicts have pretty much hit their max, any larger and they must be on steroids lol.
