Just wanted to share that i will be getting some new fish on tuesday! The importer over here in NY finally got a shipment of wild fish so i had to order something! I bribed my dad into paying for the for my birthday that is coming up soon! I ordered a pair of WC Aulonocara Maylandi Sulpherhead and a pair of WC Protomelas taeniolatus Boadzulu! Very excited! Might get some more wild fish in January!

Very nice fish!

Can't wait to see them again in a few months from now!

Could we possibly get a full tank shot?

Thanks for sharing!
