| I picked up 7 Neolamprologus savoryi at my fish club meeting on Tuesday. They are cool little fish. Right now they are all pretty small (under an inch) |

| They are pretty mild mannered unless they decide to spawn, from what I understand. Typical cichlid behavior. I'm hoping to get them to spawn so I guess I'll find out. |

| So I went to my monthly fish club meeting last night. Makes me wish I had a tank set up right now. Hopefully I can get settled and set one up soon. I'm thinking of stocking it with some local sunfish and possibly black crappie. Not 100% sure yet though. |
