    Free Anubias plants

    UFG are 3 bags of plants. Two contain larger Anubias sp (I can't recall exactly which species they are).

    The smallest bag has smaller Anubias plants and some Susswassertang.

    There is also some hair algae on the plants as I let things get a little out of control after I decided to tear down the tank. However, they're healthy otherwise and FREE obviously
    😉

    FS Driftwood -- $50

    For sale are about a dozen pieces of driftwood from the 135 gallon aquarium that I'm tearing down. Milk jugs from my winter plant sowing shown for scale.

    They currently have some algae and susswassertang on them, but the cold and dry should kill them with no issue.

    Price is $50. And pickup is in Rockville, MD near Richard Montgomery High School.

    Getting started… What to do?

    Hi everybody,
    I have a 75 gallon tank and I want to keep African cichlids. I am dithering over whether to get Tanganyikans, peacocks, or even relatively peaceful Mbuna. I think I’m aware of the pros and cons of various options, but I thought maybe I could get some advice from experienced folks on how to get started in this? If I want a tank that will be fun, relatively relaxing, and not drive me crazy because the fish outgrew the tank or started killing each other, what’s a good way to go? Thanks for any help you can provide!
    Jerry
