Stunning color! Make me jealous... :p
If you don't mind, can I have your tank water chemistry data? pH, temp, etc.?
And what is the staple food for your cichla?

Thank you very much for your data mate!
Will do something about water conditioning by the way.
I hope it could maximize the beauty of all my cichla.
My current water is 5.5 to 6 pH, temp around 31-32 celcius at normal, GH around 7 to 14, KH around 6, zero nitrite, I use aquascience ultimate as conditioner.
I feed my cichla with hikari carnivore, and live feeder sometime (not all of my cichla take on pellet)
But my cichla still can't show their maximum beauty with that.
Any idea about it?

There"s a lot of nice Bass on this site and the guys water is all different " your water seams ok at that mate! maybe up ph to the 6-6.5 and id lower kh/gh
I Tried Tap Water with my bass and they really did"nt like it and went really dark in colour and not so active!
I would"nt use feeders as can pass on disease (but lots use them) Hikari is the best food so your Bang on with that! I use cichlid gold and massivore delite!

As for maximum beauty! maybe try different lighting mate?

Yup, I think I'll try with different lightning and food conversion first, the easiest choice.
Thank you mate.

i would like to add on with bro jonny that yes now i swear on the bio gold+ pellets, the bring out the colours, background also plays an important roll in grooming i feel, like blue or white, (for when they are smaller then 9")
