For a small airship the solid frame would have been too heavy.

animal alternative falls into one of three categories: replacement of an animal method; reduction in the number of animals used; or refinement of the experimental design and methods to reduce pain and distress to animals.

However, often there are adult fish and even spawning pairs brought in by our members. Many of the fish are hard to find and not available in pet stores.

Cichlid-only community tanks-- usually with non-cichlid scavengers-- are very common in the cichlid hobby. Experienced cichlid keepers often find unlikely combinations of cichlids which work well by chance (e.g. a shortage of tank space, or a fish jumping into another tank). Aquarists will commonly attempt to group fish of similar geographical origin, e.g.
