A place to discuss the wonderful assemblage of lake Tanganyika cichlids from the tribe Ectodini, like Callochromis, Xenotilapia, Enantiopus, Cyathopharynx and Ophthalmotilapia!

How would an olive nerite snail be in with my few multifasciatus?

They are awesome algae removers. I put 10 in a 60" front tank which had a seriously messed up back wall. They cleared it in about 6-8 weeks. I was impressed and have a couple in all of my tanks now. In a small multi tank, 1 or 2 should be adequate. They do lay white eggs all over the place (not always, think it depends on the abundance of the food supply) which are unsightly and which need a fingernail to remove, but they don't hatch.
