                  Lake Malawi Safari '07'  

Gome Rocks is not a deep dive and depending on the water levels of the Lake sometimes the rocks break the surface. The area is made up of rocks and sand so the water was clear.

I cannot possibly show all the fish from this location there are just to many! Melanochromis dialeptos is a real 'fire cracker' in captivity, better suited to a more aggressive tank.

This area is also a Cichlid Breeders paradise. Brooding females are often observed with fry.
