Hey all, I am sorta new to the cichlid hobby and was told about CCA from cabinetmkr39 while getting some peacocks for my tank.

Live in Baltimore and have pretty much fallen in love with African cichlids. I have had a 75g planted tank forever, but once I got a few yellow labs to put in a 30g I haven't stopped upgrading!

I now have a 92g corner tank which can be seen here:

When I first started I had labs and mainganos, but I now want more peacocks!! my current stock list is on that link as well, down from 14 each of labs and mainganos.

Hopefully I will get more cyano. afra jalo reef from another CCA member from York (2nd one in a week to refer me here)

What else??

Who knows! Still have A LOT to learn about these little guys! My gf thinks I am crazy. I want a rack of 20 g longs but she won't let me do it, no space or something like that...

Thats all I have to say I guess.

Plan to come to a CCA meeting one Sat when flag is rained out. (CCA usually meets the 2nd Sat of the month.) You will find a lot of 'crazy' fish people. Maybe find that RARE peacock in the auction.
