Amazing tank, beautiful fish and excellent photography. Thank you very much for the pictures, your friend has great taste..............

so sick man why have you been hiding this from us

Nice tank and awesome fish. I think too that they are different enough from eachother that they won't hybridize, but you will have to be careful when they spawn to make sure that they are pure spawns. Don't want to pass along any hybrids.

Good luck with them and awesome pics.

I saw the title Håkan, and thought you'd gotten some tropheus.

They look great, as do the photos! Very nice.

No tropheus for me yet, but I would´nt mind a group of Pembas in a Tanganyikan setup in the future. I would also like a Victorian setup so that means two more tanks that I don´t have room for.

Just a few new ones. Gonna take more when i get the chance.

Gorgeous!

Awesome fish!

Gorgeous is the right word. Duboisi "Mazwa" with the blue head has become one of my favorite Tropheus.

So when are you going to set up a tank for some of your own?

I don´t know which setup to start with. One of my lfs has a large group of adult Haplochromis sp. "red back scraper", so i just might get a Victorian tank first.

I like the "Maswa" also. If I can't find more Kantalamba to go with the ones I got from
Mike, I may get a group of them to share the tank space. I think they are different
enough they would not interbreed.
