Hello everyone, I'm new to the forum all though I've been
trolling the forum for a few weeks now, also been watching alot
of johns videos on you tube for about month now. He's has alot
useful info. I think hes doing an awesome job with his videos an
podcast's.
Okay a little about my tank, I bought a 45 gal acrylic and
decided to go with mostly mbunas, as of rite now I have 5 mbunas
an one peacock, I plan on get a few more in a few weeks, maybe a
total of 10 , that'll prolly be enough as its only a 45 gal. I'm
running two filters not sure what kind lol as I bought the whole
setup from a co worker for a decent price. :) heres a few pics
from my phone I took earlier today! Let me know what y'all
think!!

I would go to 15 fish, depending on what is your filtration.
What kind of filters are they, be careful with mixing the mbuna
with the pea***k. Mbunas can be more aggressive to mix with a
pea***ks, but I have a mix as well so just keep a eye on it.

I'm not sure as what kind of filters they are ,the guy I bought
the setup from didn't know either, but they are hang on the
backs with bio wheels and have spots for two filters in them
both. 15 won't be to many for a 45 gal?

They sound like they are Marineland filters and if I am right
sounds like they take large filter pads. Do some research and if
they are 15 cichlids will not be a problem.
