i have some cichlid stones in my tanks and my cichlids NEVER go in them... they dont even sleep in them... for those of you who have cichlids who use them is there any special way you align them and set them up? or is it just a matter of my fish's taste
 
the rocks and caves we use and make are to make our fish more secure... to have a place to go when something spooks them, the more places they have to get away to, the more they will stay out where you can see them
 
Can you put a pic up because I have no idea of what you all are talking about referring to cichlid rocks. Are they just normal rocks used for decor or for homing. ?????? But in any case just make them feel comfortable with cover areas
 
I never heard of Cichlid stones either, thought it was just me!
At a guess, I would say its just another money making gimmick from a manufacturer aimed at new hobbiests
 
ahh.... natural is best.... i wouldnt put to much faith in plastic caves vs slate..... i bet if you filled your tank with slate you would get what your looking for
 
My fishes use to do that before. They stayed away because it was something new in the tank.
But now they breed like crazy in those rocks.
