I have a lot actually. Recently I have taken to P. Saulosi and just had my first fry the other day. My next big 'conquest' will be P. Elongatus, if I can find the type I want.
In the past I have kept everything from Auratus and Kennyi to yellow labs and buttikoferi. Right now I have the P. Saulosi, some slightly rare barbs and Lamprologus tretacephaleus in my 90 gallon tank. I breed/raise Endler's livebearers in a 29 gallon tank with a couple apistos (cockatoo and borellii). I have a 55 gallon tank that I am thinking about getting back into planted tanks. Otherwise I have saltwater tanks.

Hi Everyone Trust me when I say Tommygun is an absolute wealth of information...I came here from the 'other' forum too...
I got in to fishkeeping about 6 months ago and Tommy, Cichlidgirl and a bunch of others have schooled me in the proper ways to do things... Currently keeping mbunas in my 60 gal
labidochromis caeruleus labidochromis freibergi pseudotropheus saulosi pseudotropheus acei
And a 30 gal community tank (tetras, dwarf gouramis, otos)
Looking forward to getting to know everyone...
Karen

Hey Karen!
Glad to see you over here at CP - - - - and thanks for the compliment. You have also become an aquarist I would trust for information and I think you will be a great addition to CP as well!
Like cichlidgirl points out, I am also convinced that CP has a very bright future so it should be fun to watch!

Hey Lillyd!
Welcome to CP! I assume that you came from FTF as well?
Yea, yea...I disagree on the SW fish being harder, but know what you mean. Cichlids are often times referred to as the FW reef tank.
I do have some good ideas and am going to tip-toe around and see if I can mention CP to other FTF members.

I was the one talking to you & Cichlid girl about Dwarf Cichlids .So how is the other site doing .When that stuff came on my computer I thought what is this.I still haven't got my tank set-up yet.And my taste with a cichlids was red devils .I put 4 small ones in a 10 gallon intill I put up a big 29 gallon .But one of them took out the other 3 .I name it Rocky .I had him for a long time.And I been hooked ever since.oh and he love his guppys.& roseys .I fedhim live food as treat.So do you have to give live food to dwarfs.,
