Looking to add some mbuna to my 75

I currently have a 75 gallon tank with 4 greshakei, a red zebra (which is probably going in another tank), and a sailfin pleco. All are about 2-3 inches except for the pleco who is about 6-7 inches.

I would really like some Cynotilapia Afra to go in the tank but wanted to check on here to see if anyone breeds them and what other kinds people are raising and are looking to sell.

Please post up here with what you have available and if you want PM me a price on them. I am looking to add them all to the tank around the same time to curb the aggression.

I am guessing I can probably add two more species of about 5 each to the tank. (Please correct me if I am wrong...)

I think 2 more species is the right number of groups. I would start with groups of 8 to 10. That way have a better chance of ending up with a good M/F ratio by getting rid of extra males.
 
Honestly, you can never go wrong with a group of labs -- they're pretty and they're flexible and can go with about anything. If you want a few for free, I'm going to need to thin my herd soon . . .

Discusnafricans has a breeding group of afra (which Ad Konings says are actually zebroides). Not sure if he has any now, but shoot him a PM.

Glad to know I was on the right track!

pretty and flexible is always a good thing! When you are ready to thin the herd let me know. Can't go wrong with the price either

Thanks for the info! I will be sure to shoot him a message to see if he has any or will have any.
