    Misc Africans f/s or f/t

    I would like to start over and take a more planned approach with my tank. I'm looking to re-home my existing assorted cichlids, and go with a hap / peacock breeding groups setup. If someone wants to buy them, great. If someone is willing to trade for some juveniles, even better. I have one...

    Some of my Africans

    Phil (IAMZRAD) took some great shots of a few of the peacocks and haps in my 120 show tank. Figured I'd share a few for all. First shot is of the overall tank after some new aquascaping (although I think I'm going to change it again). Next pictures in order are a 'Lwanda' peacock, Steveni...
