    When i got back into the hobby, i knew having one tank wouldn't last long !
    I have kept a Malawi set up in the past, so this time, i can't stop thinking about a South American tank. I am thinking about geophagus and a green terror, but you have just thrown a
    "Spanner in the works" with this fantastic Malawi video !
    Realistically, it has to be one or the other as i already have a fair sized tank full of
    Green and black ruby barbs.
    I know i will eventually give in to both !
    KAITY AND HER ADDICTIVE VIDEOS 🤦‍♂️😁

    Awesome video! Another really good aquatics store, definitely another to add to the list to visit if I ever visit that part of the world! Loads of the species there are the same my friend keeps in his aquarium, like the Yellow Labs, Sulphur Peacock and Demasoni Mbuna, really cool to see them in one of your videos as they're really interesting fish to watch 😀 Were there any species you saw there you'd like to add to your aquariums? Also, went gliding again today and learnt how to stall a glider and recover from a flat stall which was more fun than I expected, especially when you're pulling G forces to recover!

Those are really cool, and would be a very different kind of fish to build a biotope aquarium for 😀
