Melanochromis chipokae

Got a pair of Melanochromis chipokae dropped off about a week ago. Beautiful fish, and despite their reputation, almost no aggression.

Yeah, I've had that happen before. Bought a Red Wolf fish (Erythrinus erythrinus) a while back, and added him to a tank with a few others, no issues. Two weeks later I noticed rips in fins, teeth marks on the sides of fish, etc. No deaths though.
When something goes wrong, I'll make arrangements. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I'm always prepared for whatever happens, lol.
