The water in their aquarium should be between 74 degrees F and 82 degrees F. African Cichlids are very aggressive fish. Lowering the temperature of their water helps lower their aggression levels. African Cichlids need to eat a variety of foods. They need Cichlid flakes and pellets, frozen, and live food. They need to be fed small portions, but frequently.
be careful of the pH too buddy - they need slightly alkaline pH. Cheers! And hope your cichlids grow well! add a comment
About the pH I'd like to add that sudden changes of pH are not well tolerated at all while slow changes are better tolerated. Hope that helps. add a comment
