water paramters should be the same as all fish i.e 0 nitrates 0 ammonia etc.. the main things to know are cichla prefer a low - neutral ph and keeping the temp between 87-90 degrees farenheit (make sure the tank has increased oxygen when running tanks at this temp) will insure your future cichla will thrive!

Should the temp stay that high for life? or can it cool down some when they mature?
