Malawi Tank Video! Cichlid, Mbuna, African Fish, Aquarium

This is my 300l (ca. 75 gal.) malawi tank with fishes / cichlids / mbuna from lake Malawi, east africa. My Malawi tank / aquarium is decorated only with rocks, this is necessary because mbuna from lake malawi are rock dwelling cichlids. Mbuna like rocks, caves and sand, so the malawi tank has to be decorated with huge stones. They are quite agressive and territoral at times but belong to the most beautiful and colorful sweetwater fishes.

In my Malawi tank, i keep Labeotropheus trewavasae, Tropheops Macrophtalmus, Pseudotropheus Saulosi, Maylandia Estherae, Labidochromis Hongi and Labidochromis caeruleus (Yellow). Especially the Labeotropheus and Tropheops are mbuna / mbunas that look very good and show interesting behaviour.

Tropheops macrophthalmus is the only mbuna / cichlid / fish in my malawi tank that has got a name. And no, its not nemo! I call him “Saddam” because he is sometimes a little tyrant!

3′ Foot Freshwater Tropical Community Aquarium Fish Tank with Amano Shrimps, Frogs & Tetras

This is my six week old community trpoical aquarium. I plan to add about 20 more tetras in about 5 species. look out for the Amano Shrimps, they’re great and I will be adding some Cherry Shrimps soon.
Next tank will be a 30″ planted shrimp tank, will be making the lighting system myself, so please look back soon.

Please rate this as its the first time I’ve made a movie, so you’ll have to put up with some bad editing.

Thanks for viewing! Please feel free to comment

African Malawi Fish Tank Aquarium

After many changes, the finished Malawi fish tank, housed in 450 litre bow fronted aquarium (5′x2′x2′) are approx 70 fish including 4 clown loach, 3 Pictus catfish, 3 Bristlnose pleco, 1 Rainbow shark, 4 Denison Barbs, 3 Tropheus and an array of Malawi Cichlids from a variety of Alunocara to Yellow Labs and Livingstonii.

Before you say there are too many fish, I promise you there aren’t, if there were any less then the aggression between them would be too high!

The set up consists of:

Juwel Vision 450 Fish Tank (450 litres)
1 x Juwel Jumbo internal filter
1 x Fluval FX5 external filter
2 x 1500lph powerheads with air inlets and polishing filters
2 x 300W heaters
Approx 100-120kg ocean rock
Colour and Blue T5 lighting tubes
Blue moonlight LED strips

As expected the malawis are breeding regularly, there always 2-3 females pregnant at any one time, 25-50% water change carried out once per week.

Approx cost including fish was £2k but it brings hours of relaxation so worth every penny !!
