@camotharpo:

@FishTankFanatic:

What happend to your eyes?

Especially those "Black Chinned Xenotilapia" are supposed to look much more colorful. I think it's because they are not accustomed to that tank.

[FishTankFanatic]

Oh everyone thinks i have eye problems and the dumb eye doctor gave me 12 hour eye drops to keep my eyes dialated and oh, i had no clue. lol

[xinfeQionx]

@xinfeQionx:

Yes, they are part of the Cichlidae family.
