Just wanted to share my Amphilophus peeling. He's going to be a beast, had a midevil pass away at 5 years old and started this guy about 2 1/2 months ago. Pics go from most recent to when I got him. Thank yall!

hello, I'm just creating a spreadsheet for hybrids between these species. I have a few examples from other threads, mainly nicer ones but I would appreciate any photos of the bad hybrids more than nicer ones. just so I don't give a false narrative within the spreadsheet that all hybrids are...

Male or female

Any thoughts in the quality of this jag? It’s at my LFS and debating on getting it. It’s about 3 years old and pushing 15 inch plus. I would need to make some adjustments in my tank if I was to get him.

Hello everyone! Can any of you confirm if this is a true Amphilophus hogaboomorum?

I just picked up my first zonatus it’s about 6 inches. Do these color up as they grow? Mine looks dull. Can you share pictures of yours?

Hi guys! This is long but I wanted to give you a good idea of the situation so I can get the best advice possible. I got a new 125 gallon tank and am setting it up now. Trying to figure out what I want to stock it with once I get it cycled. I was going to go with South American (I love those...

I have a 5feet long 90 gallon tank. I've had an Oscar in it for almost 2 years. He was really healthy and grew big from a very small size. But recently I lost him all of a sudden. He was gasping and died. I do the water changes weekly 40-50% always and it has worked for me really well. I brought...

Hello everyone, I have 90 gallon tank stocked with 4 blue acaras, 2 angel fish, and a dwarf pleco. The tank has been set up for about 4 months and all the fish get along great luckily! However, the acaras are still very shy even though I have a fair amount of decorations and the light is an LED...

I recently got a vieja hybrid from my friend. And imo they are one of the prettiest fish one can have . I've seen a lot of threads on different types of VIEJAS here on MFK. But very few have pictures of fish or a complete shot of the tank. I wonder if all MFK people keeping VIEJAS could post...

Good day friends! I quit the hobby last 2018 where I had been a Flowerhorn keeper for 3 years. This year, I am transitioning to caring for natural Cichlids, in particular, Central American cichlids. I would like to seek your guidance setting up my first Hypsophrys nicaraguensis species tank. Can...

Is this considered as a Honduran jag?

My guess it’s a male I might be wrong.

Hello every one, I have for sale some central american cichlids. They are 2.5 to 3 inches. They are very active and healthy. They show blue, yellow and red colors.

10" Syspillium for sale. $100.

I am interested in the affects of aging on Cichlids. If you have a Cichlid that is about about 3/4 through its lifespan please show me. This also includes hybrids and African Cichlids but there is no section for Cichlids in general so I posted it here.

Looking for a very colorful straind of the salvini cichlid to keep and breed. F1 would be nice located in ohio will pay shipping let me know thanks

Two Rio Guatape umbees. Wondering if there both female or if one is male and other female. Was told one was male and other female

Selling a rather rare CA cichlid - my male 8" Oscura Heterospila or Montecristo cichlid. very health, active and mellow CA cichlid, one of the most beautiful imo. First $60 picks him up.

Does anyone know where to order or any good fish stores that sell central/american cichlids?. Looking to get back in the game and get a pair of dovii or umbee or festae pair. Was going to travel to toronto to see if they had anything but I thought I'd ask the forum first.
