A couple of months ago, we converted our 65g tank to a lake malawi tank, and picked up a bunch of mbuna from danger_chicken. We since added some cool melanochromis from sonny_disposition. This was our first dedicated cichlid tank.

For those of us that keep africans, which lake do you prefer? I know some of us have fish from all 3 lakes, but most of us have a preference for 1 over the rest. Why do you prefer your favorite? Are there particular types of fish you prefer, or is it the whole system you enjoy? What...

Does anyone have the CD that was included with some copies of the 3rd edition of Malawi Cichlids in their Natural Habitat by Ad Konings? I am looking for an opinion on the usefulness of the CD, or if anyone has one to sell for a reasonable price, I would be interested. Please let me know. Thanks
