Great overview of Tanganyikan keeping. I keep a couple of Tanganyikan species. Love them. Thanks Jason!!!
Funny, that I have Brichardis and Masked Julies in one aquarium. The aquarium seller told me that Julies are going to eat the fry anyway. yeah right.... I have a soup of Brichardis going on now. Luckily at some point they breed less and population does not grow that much anymore.
NFL Sunday, Weekly water change & A new Prime Time Aquatics cichlid video?? LETS GOOOOOO !!!
Woohoo!
So many many of these fish are on my bucket list. I'm glad that you so put out this guide.
Well then... what I'm hearing is, "Whip. You did it wrong."
"Again."
Too funny 😀
love my Lake Tanganyika tank
I got back into aquariums in 2023 after being away from the hobby for 20 years. Previously was a Lake Malawi guy, but I decided to go Lake Tanganyika this time. (and a Western Africa). I have Julidichromis Marksmith Kilpi and Caudo Punks. I also have the Lake Turkana Jewel, along with some Dwarf Neon Rainbow, Dwarf Petricola, and Bristlenose Plecos. After 12 months, I've had every species breed and successfully raise fry, except for the Dwarf Petricola. Currently researching Calvus/Comps to add to the 75 gallon, and maybe some Sumba to the 40 gall.
Nice!
Lake Tanganika Cichlids is the only Cichlids I keep because of their size and behavior
They see awesome for sure!
Neo. Brichardi need to be in a species only tank. I put 2 fish in a 48g and in 6ish months I had 130+ fish in the tank. O.o
I hear you!
Excellent Tang introductory video. This helps me greatly. Thanks 👍🏼‼️
That's so true, Jason.I've been keeping them for years but yes hard water And a higher ph Necessary for long-term keeping of these awesome fish.
I'm a huge fan of Tropheus and Cyprichromis. So many great colors. Tropheus are just always so active.
I am starting a tangentikan tank after your advise from livestream a few weeks back so this was super helpful your channel has made this hobby enjoyable for me again thanks so much for the work you do!
Great video thanks.
Can I set up a 20 gallon long with mix of rock dwellers that won't reproduce?
I love there colors but do not want to deal with fry.
Sure - you can mix them
@@PrimeTimeAquatics Thanks They won't try to cross breed?
How many would you recommend in a 20 gallon long?
Oh man right on time
Love this video! Trying to keep my MTS under control lol but a Lake Tanganyikan tank is definitely one I hope to set up in the future. This was a fun watch and super helpful for stocking ideas ☺️
It’ll be worth it!
I have been wanting to start a Tropheus tank. They are very expensive! Plus kind of hard to get. Most places I have found that offer them are sold out.
They sure are!
Thank you for doing a video on the Tanganyika's. There not a lot of info on them out there. I started a 40L a few months ago and still deciding one what to add. So far a black calvus, 2 juli's, 2 neo- gracilis (already breeding), a leleupi and a red bristle nose. Probably add another calvus and a dwarf petricola to keep down on the fry. Can barely keep up with the fry with the Mbuna tank. Any suggestions? not a fan of the shell dwellers.
Any chance we will see the original shirts back in in the near future?
We are going to be restocking soon! I really love the ornatus!
