My favourite rift lake cichlid species

I'm really into my Tanganyikans right now.

I've got to say, the Ophthalmotilapia Boops Nkondwe 'neon streak' is a standout for me. The Yellow Moshi is another favourite - such a beautiful fish. I'm also really into the Tropheus sp Phoenix, and the Kasakalawe in particular is a great addition.

For smaller species, I've got a soft spot for the Sumbu Compressiceps. And the Neolamprologus Ocellatus Gold is another favourite of mine - the colour is just stunning.

Tanganyikans are really something else, love the look of them. Got a frontosa in my rift lake tank and he's my go-to. Could see myself doing a Peacock or Mbuna setup in the future, just waiting for the right moment. Been leaning towards Americans for years, but I'm having second thoughts for the first time in ages.
