Think you have Malawi if it is an Elongatus or a Zebra they are very agressive,also the bands change with mood and varieties,it should only be in a Malwi setup as sooner or later it will turn nasty,what is it in with fella? |
| 29-03-2006 18:09 by Big Rob |
is aggro turns black .in with sharkcat/plec/sevrums/clownloachs/johannis/other mixed cichs which i cant rember |
| 29-03-2006 18:32 by Ray |
Seems an odd mix,but I doubt he will be safe in there. |
