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?
that thing with the white ball looks like a one of these water fall thingys that you can by to help you relax...is that what it is? very creative and beautiful!!
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
@2424Anthony Thats alot of info! Start by doing alot of research on the fish you want to have in your tank, cuz not all fish are the same to take care mahnn!
@ihatecamels1 Yes but you will have aggression issues at one point and fish will die after fighting! Depends what kind you get as well thou, cuz some might get along with one another!
try not to feed too much bloodworm as they can and will get bloat which can be nasty i find malawi's love brineshrimp enriched with spirulena especially your mbuna species
@Blazemess Actually yea i know of three Obliquides zebras right now, but im not sure if this pet store sends out fish or not because they are a smaller store.
@OurWhitevoices Yea everyone told me they wouldn't but i had them in the tank first as tester fish to get the levels correct. They have been living with different cichlids for almost two years now! They are pretty cool i had three of them to begin with and after one year they killed one of there own. Now there are only two of them!
@lllSUPAFLYlll Things happen but Tigers do well in groups, weird things happen, I hv a firemouth cichlid with Platies, a Gourami etc all friendly fish he only picks on the Goldfish, but he is a juvenile I doubt that will be like this forever!
i thought cichlids couldnt have blood worm due to high protien or can u give them it now and then?
