BUBBA

MEET BUBBA



This is my largest African Mbuna Cichlid. Bubba is about 4 inches long. As you can see he's quite happy in his little home. Unfortunately he's a bully to anyone who comes near his abode. I change the landscape when I do my water changes but he always finds that same cave to hide in. He loves it so much that sometimes he spends an entire day inside and I don't get to see him except for dinner times. I decided it was time to make some drastic changes so he loses his possessiveness. I stacked rocks making many nooks and crannies removing the large cave rock he loves so much. He's more social and gets lots of exercise now that he's not protecting his cave. He's even gotten himself a girlfriend. I think Bubba is a happy camper.
