Well folks I have it all done and stocked. So far in the last 2 weeks I aquired 3 tanks and some real good finds. All are in place and I'm ready to breed. Now to relax for a minute. The 75 is good to go. Put my 6 Syno Multipunctatus in there and just picked up the cichlids to breed today. I went with 6 Fulleborni(1M/5F) and 5 P. Saulosi(1M/4F) as the EL's F's were not availible. Then I aquired 7 Tropheus Moori "chimba"(2M/5F) a couple days ago for my 120. Also grabbed 2 red and 1 black Calvus today. So in the last 2.5 weeks I aquired 75gal,2-40gal breeders,7 Tropheus "chimba",3 Calvus,6 Fulleborni,5 P Saulosi,2 Tropheus "sp. black",a couple of "sponge" air powered filters, and a couple of "egg" baskets. I managed to do this for $400 US. And on top of that I'm sittin at my comp watchin my Angels gettin ready to lay eggs for the 3rd time. I'm so glad fish are my new hobby. The funny thing is this was all to try to breed my Multi cats. Anyway I'll change my profile after this post if you would like to see tanks and stock. I just needed to share some JOY. Thanks for all the help this site has givin me .

Oh BTW. My Angels are laying/ferting as I speak. I guess no time off as I need to run to the petstore to get another intake tube for my Fluval. I would like to do it "naturally", but with the fish in the tank, the've ate both batches before. WOW my head is spinning. THIS IS TOO COOL. At least I know now which Angel is the daddy. My wife was right as USUAL.

Sounds like you have been busy. Good luck with the new projects and much success in your breeding efforts.

Update: Oh well, I didn't make it back in time for the angels. But I will be ready next time. I've got 1 more week off work to study the cichlid/syno setup. Already looks like the cats are "watchin" the cichlids. 75 almost looks like a bare show tank, though I did not aim for it. Now to call Jehmco to get some Cyclops and some box filters. Well I'll keep you folks updated, and if I get lucky I may have some Synos for sale for cheap, as I'm not doing it for $$$, just the joy. I'll post some pics of the 75 and 120(tropheus) if I get a chance.
