  • In today's video, we visit another NBA Coach to see his new beautiful Lake Tanganyika Aquarium! This big Waterbox aquarium has an awesome natural aquascape to Lake Tanganyika, and it has some young Tanganyikan cichlids and tank mates. I brought over shell dwellers to add to this tank, and it should be a great Tanganyika community tank over time. Looking forward to going back and filming the progression over time!
    Damian Cotter is an Assistant NBA Coach for the Chicago Bulls. He was with us during the installation of Head Coach Billy Donovan's aquarium last year. It's awesome to see that there are now two Chicago Bulls coaches with beautiful aquariums!

    • @icedemon1515

      @@stupacshakur8279 There are always so many factors it could be PH This is the PH those fish need blue ram pH of 5.5 - 6.5 oto's need pH: 6.8 - 7.5 pH Firemouth ranging between 6.5-8.0. I would assume the Rams probably were living in to high of PH and eventually just kind of died due to stress. I mean I am not really there so I don't know, but if I had to take a guess that is what I would say. The only reason I say PH is because the species is the only information I have from what you said, and I feel a tank crash would of killed the otos first.

      Key phrase "proper set up"
      Large fronts eat at night.
      A colony of Neolamprologus brichardi or splendens
      are nasty enough to co habitat in a rock pile.
      The colony will be kept in check naturally.
