Aulonacara Nyassae
Cyprichromis
Cichlids turning brown. 5/26/12
Hi team,
<Hello Jessica.>
It seems you have a very informative website here. (I somehow spent the last 2 hours reading and learning). But unfortunately I have not found exactly what I am looking for. I have a 200 litre tank, with a few cichlids, 2 loaches, 2 'upside down' cat fish, a silver shark and 2 silver dollars.
<The Shark and the Silver Dollars will soon outgrow the 200 litre aquarium, and the loaches may, depending on the species, Clown Loaches for example can get huge.>
I am not 100% sure what all my cichlid's are, but am almost 99% sure one is a 'butterfly cichlid' one
<Do you mean Mikrogeophagus ramirezi? Or Anomalochromis thomasi? Both need soft water, but the first species is very demanding and must have warm, very soft, very acidic water -- 1-3 degrees dH, pH 5-6. Anomalochromis thomasi is more adaptable and will do fine across the usual range for tropical fish, 2-15 degrees dH, pH 6.5-7.5.>
