    Question 🙋🏻‍♂️ is it possible to successfully keep Severum and Discuss together in a 120 gallon tank? If so, what is the best way to set things up? 😊

    Having kept fish from all 3 of the rift lakes for several years id have to say my favorites are from lake Victoria and Tanganyika. The peas and haps are beautiful fish same as mbunas but i found them boring. Having up to 30 of them in a 240 and 40 mbuna in a 125. I find the s\c americans more interesting. Malawis are not as aggressive as some claim. One day maybe ill try them again.

    Cichlid Bros, I need your help! 😊 what are the best places to shop online for Severum fish?? Local places don’t seem to have much, & a lot of the sites I find look sketchy & don’t have accurate or consistent information and the either don’t have any pictures, or the pictures are really bad. Who can I trust to shop for Severums? Also, everyone talks about all the variants of severum, but there must be some kind of secret knowledge, because all I can find are redspots, green, some variants of red shoulder. How do you find trustworthy info?

      You could stock less fish. Not every tank has to have 10-20 plus fish in it🤷‍♂️
