Today, my lovely wife and I decided that we wanted to move the little cichlids from the nursery tank into the main community.
The tank lacked hiding spots for the newcomers, so we went to the pet store and bought a couple of plastic/resin rocks that we could glue together to make a taller habitat in the tank for the fish. We took two resin rocks and glued them together with some hot melt glue and then tied on some spear grass (it will root to the “rock”) and then did some tank rearranging.
Enter the little cichlids.
Big Blue (metriaclima pulpican) got very cross and showed off some exceptional colouring. We found that one of the new fish was a female metriaclima pulpican, she started to stick with Big Blue and then she started displaying with him. Very pretty, very excited.
Other than that, the rest of the fish seemed to be fairly OK with the move. Although the clown loaches hid for a couple of hours.
Here is some footage of the tank, it’s furniture and the fish.
