so your saying there is salt in the amazon?

My opinon is very low levels in inlets and outlet's also salt minerals in the earth and land run off. Also I have to believe were blackwater meet's white water's. I read somewhere that it also may be aq condition for breeding.

maybe minor traces... i never read that but i don't doubt it, i am sure you could get cichla to spawn like alot of other cichlid.. you can get them to breed with frequent small water changes, turn up the temp 1 degree each day or every 2 days and feeding live foods along with consistency and long periods of good water quality ... shrug lol tongue where are you? he would know better then me lol

LOL, thats what the devil on my right shoulder says

I have been in the hobby long enough to know that impulse buying rarely turns out good. I always research and ask lots of questions before I spend money on anything.


OH and about the salts in the Amazon, I would think there is some in the water but probably untraceable amounts, especially during the rainy season when the Amazon floods.

I have decided NOT to buy any Cichla. I plan on building a new house in the next year or so and I plan on having a "fishroom" so I think I will just wait so I can provide the proper home for any cichla.


Don't get me wrong, I would love to have a few right now but I just want to provide a large enough home for them. I will definitely post them when I get some. Thanks again for the info!

Glad to help and we will be here when you return. I think building a house should take priority. And then get the big tank. Sounds like your doing things right. And the Cichla will be here when your ready. GL with everything and I am sure we will see you again.
