Still one of my favorite fish after years of keeping them and dozens of other species

19/09/2021

These neolamprologus multifasciatus aka “Multies” stay very active and colony breed in shells at the bottom of lake tanganyika in Africa or in this case - at the bottom of this fish tank in my fish room. Cichlids are usually known are getting very large and being aggressive but these guys stay between 1-2” and although can be territorial and best kept species only, tend to care for their own and raise multiple generations without isssue.

How “The Fish Cave” Came To Be

Fish, nature, and pets in general have always had a soft spot in my heart. I kept fish as a kid, always had a dog, bred guinea pigs, and even once dreamed of owning a pet store as a little kid. A few years back in December 2016 I got my first tank as an adult and quickly started learning as much as I could about the fish keeping hobby.

I found YouTube to be an entertaining and knowledgable source of information and a little over a year later I became a YouTube creator myself, publishing the first video to "Lucky Schmuck's Fish Tanks" on February 20th, 2018. I went from 1 tank to a rack system with 16. Started keeping planted tanks, fell in love with cherry shrimp, bristlenose plecos, and lots of other smaller fish. The channel became "Lucky Schmuck's Fish Cave" a few months later after I began to hang out in my garage fish man cave more and more.

Luckily the YouTube channel performed well and I was inspired to continue making videos and expanding the Fish Cave. The 16 tanks I had became over 30 and I began to grow out cherry shrimp, plecos, and snails to help pay for fish food and upkeep costs. Little by little things started falling into place and decided to get more serious and launch a website. The channel name has since been changed to Wild Fish Tanks to better represent my love for collecting native fish but my passion for breeding has not gone anywhere.
