No, I am near Houston.
=)
Would like to add that I have purchased the 5 tiger barbs, 5 red zebr
mbuna and 2 kenyis and they all are doing fine togeather... they ar
not even eating my plants as much as i thought they would. bought som
base rock and they really seem to love hiding in all the noocks an
crannies, still have plenty of room in my tank, i was even thinking o
getting maybe some more kenyis and maybe some (yellow) labs.

my thought is that if I over load it (doing frequent water changes) th
fish won't know who to fight with... or eat.

Yeah, its called overstocking for aggression, and is a generally good
idea. You don't want to push the biological limit on your tank too much,
but with enough fish, there will be no big problems with aggression. Its
one of those things that are hard to understand, but work none the less.
