Fish Species
As promised in my first post, here is the list of the current cichlid species in my aquarium with their pictures that I personally took:
- Electric Yellow (Labidochromis caeruleus)
- Pindani (Pseudotropheus socolofi)
- Fire Fish (Aulonocara Firefish)
- Mpanga (Pseudotropheus sp. "Elongatus Mphanga")
- Yellow Tail Acei (Pseudotropheus sp. "Acei" (Msuli))
- Demasoni (Pseudotropheus demasoni)
- Hap Ahli (Sciaenochromis fryeri)
- Convict (zebra) cichlid (Amatitlania nigrofasciatus)
At one point I had a male Melanochromis Auratus, but it was so aggressive that I had to return it back to my local fish store. Also you may notice that most of my fish are from Lake Malawi but I have two convict cichlids from Central America. This was due to a misinformation that I got from the seller at the local fish store, who told me that those are from Africa as well! I should have researched better before buying my fish. But, in fact, now I quite like their colors, behaviors, and compatibility with the other fish so I don't feel bad for having them (also as both are female they are not likely to propagate!). Below are some pictures of my fish:
