More Info

State: West Virginia
Country: United States
Description: African cichlid comunity tank. I have managed to quell tempers by landscaping the tank with lots of caves and hiding places.
Advice: Reserch before you start. Just because some cichlid foods are marketed for all cichlids does not mean they are best for your fish. There are three kind of fish carnivours, omnivours and herbavours feed accordingly.
Corals/Plants: Gravel, sand, river rock, volcanic rock, and fake plants.
Tank Size: 29 gallons
