In a 125 Gallon tank , would you dare put in the most least aggressive Mbuna cichlid?

@leeholdcroft6006 23 күн бұрын

Cracking fish when bigger , got a question for you cause you obviously know your stuff on cichlids , I have 6-7 inch jack dempsey had about a year and half, it not eaten for over 2 weeks I’ve tried Esha hexamita Esha ndx and given Epsom salt baths , fish looks fine apart from not eating and shying away from other fish when they eat , tried loads of different food booodworm cichlid pellets flake and fluval bug bites , sorry bother you , any ideas is this something you’ve seen before ?

@BillsCichlidRoom 23 күн бұрын

Thanks Lee, I’ve seen it with timid fish. With adult fish they don’t eat as much when they have stopped growing or no breeding but 2 weeks does sound a lot. I only feed my adults 3-4 times a week.

So you think there nothing else to do , do you think I should try force feed it

Quite a lot of fish in this tank I.didn't know there is mouthbreeding Severum.

@BillsCichlidRoom Ай бұрын

There are a lot of fish, they will need spreading around other tanks at some stage. I have done a species profile on the ‘mouthbrooding severum - apparently they were the first to be discovered, but nobody went back to the original location for many years, until they were re- discovered and found to be mouthbrooders.

I think I just adopted this fish tonight. It was being attacked in an assorted Cichlid tank. but mine has very light gray stripes, but it has blue eyes.? 😄 I don’t even know the picture looks like my fish, but the fish in the video maybe not ugh. Probably someone that knows about cichlids could look at it and be like oh yeah that’s a blah blah blah lol.

Thanks Tiffany, a lot of the smaller cichlids do look similar - they can change appearance during breeding (colours etc can intensify). Best of luck with yours whatever ever it turns out to be.
