@vcrespo5782 no, these species of fish need to be overcrowded. they kill each other if they can single each other out. do some research on african cichlids before you give bad advice.
@vcrespo5782 U must know nothing about african cichlids if u take a in lake malawi, which is the lake where these fish origined(since u probrobaly didn't know already) it is crowded like crazy...People get smarter every day! lolz
May I say politely. Unfortunately your tank is artificial looking and it does not resemble any biotopes from the Lake Malawi. Take a look at so many authentic videos from that lake. Try real and beautiful rock formations, rocky canyons and rock walls. Then you can have a three dimensional scenery. And then your fish species will be a part of that scenery!
@grimmreapo It really doesnt matter now does it...it seems his fish are acting just fine....mixing lakes doesnt matter if you know how to set up your tank... I've got at least 2 from each lake not to mention 3 south americans...had them all for 2 years and havent lost a fish yet...I even have a frontosa thats 7" long and about 3 pounds that doesnt bother any of my other fish...I can put any baby or fry in there and they wont touch them......it's all about to the keeper and the environment
nice tank. It's a shame that people can't just accept that it's a nice tank & that your fish seem to be doing well. I have 8 tanks (4 devoted to cichlids Africans, S.A. & N.W.) it's really a matter of how well your fish will all tolerate each other and that they get a varied diet.... As far as fish selection goes... whatever works for you is all that matters!!!!
nice tank! im currently working on a new set up for my tank. Where did u happen to get all your rocks? i wanna do some rock arrangement but i don't have many rocks.
hi Love your tank just love the design, but i have a question. During feeding with my fish i put cichlid pellets in the the tank but the fish don't notice them at all. I have 4 juvenile Yellow Labs. They been in the tank for 2 days now and this was the first feeding so i am worried about them. Please respond thx.
I wouldn't mix the Tropheus (black fish with white spots is one, called midnight tropheus (common name)) with your peacock cichlids. To much protein in their diet may cause them to bloat and eventually die. I feed mine a mainly veggie diet.
I've heard alot about overcrowding cichlids to reduce aggression, is this the case? i currently have 8 along with and multi plunctatus sinidontis(sorry if the spellings off lol) but they are all really aggressive since we lost a few due to sickness or old age.. (we had 12) we have a 40 gallon would adding more make a difference in the aggression?
really nice tank. but i think if those are frontosas you should get them out and sell them to someone who has a tank that will better suit the frontosas needs. not trying to be a dick or anything
lets face it, it's like ying and yan, you cant have positive without the negative, unfortunately there are a lot of negative sad people out there that have nothing better to do than put other people down... best thing to do is just ignore them, don't give them the satisfaction.... peace x
hey cld you please help me figure this out im wanting to get a 75 gallon african cichlid tank i want these fish but can you tell me if thats to many in if you think it would work thanks 1 albino peacock 1 blue peacock 1 yellow peacock 3 johanni 2 bumble bee 2 blue colbalt 3 demasoni 1 electric blue 2 electric yellow labs 2 kenyi 3 mbuna 2 orange leleupi 1orange peacock cichlid 1 red peacock 2 venustus 2 tretocephalus 2 red zebra n 3 moorei 2 frontosa and 2 fuelleborni marmalade
nice set up man! ignore all the haters. they are just a bunch of poor ignorant people, who mothers won't let them set up a tank bigger than a 5 gallon. =]
@rockaway25 I feel like the artifical look is the point of this tank. I think it looks great.
there are two types of tanks I like natural ones and artificial ones. I can stand tanks that use artificail decorations to try and look natural you know what I mean?
@rockaway25 opinion is opinion but you can deny this tank is good. I prefer the natural look as well favoring drift wood which I collect on my travels. take a look at my 75 gal its not quite done but its getting there. my fish are much more colored up now those clips are out dated
i like the fish but ya i agree that the music sucks with this vid and you should have more than just that one type of rock or maybe just organize them a little more randomly. just so it feels more natural for them and isnt that tank going to be to small when they all get big?
reading all these comments there is a lot of anal people who keep fish and just wanna put other fish keepers down ....i think tank is so cool because its different ... again well done you
@guamii because a single specimen/species especially S.American cichlids are just a WOW factor. I had a silver arowana once, he lived 8yrs. People's jaws just dropped to the floor everytime. But hey, to each his own right?
Beautifull FIsh! You need to know that not just any rock can go in an aquarium though, including man made stones, since they may have poisonus elements. I had to find this out the hard way.
