  • Adding African cichlids to your tank can be very difficult, especially if you have an established aquarium with other cichlids already in the tank. I will take you through the steps that I take to lessen the aggression amongst the African cichlids and make it easier for you to add new fish your tank.

    I don't understand how people who watch CZcams, will not give a thumbs up? These people work hard to film and edit the shows we watch, it is the least we can do.

    Love this video cause you really hit this subject the right way! I have cichlids and the plant 🌱 in the corner really helps when you got aggression issues in the tank 👍🏻 I seen that less rocks sometimes helps cause there not enough Territory to be claimed and the fish keep moving

  • @joseCalderon1976

    I always add at least 5 fish at a time. Thanks for the video 👍

    Good explanation and info! I havent added new cichlids to my tank in over a year, despite losing 2, all because i dont want to mess with the balance!

    I’m excited to do my peacock tank I’m planning and doing lots of research and your African cichlid playlist has really helped!

    Never thought about the blue light trick. Cool video zeno. Thanks for the great tips!

    Hi! Your videos are really great! So well presented and very clear. So enjoyable. Thanks. I have an Mbuna cichlid tank set up 1 week ago. I just added more rocks last night, and plan to buy more Mbunas on the weekend. New rocks only been in for 48 hours by the time new fish come in. Do I need to change the rocks again when adding my new fish on Sunday?

    Thanks Kenzo for the tips been following these steps now that i have cichlids water babies and it helps a lot!

  • @CaylorsReptilesAquatics

    Love their colors and size but I don't enjoy moving furnishings to accommodate the aggression. It's a different way of thinking like and being the fish. You obviously know how to manage their issues. Thanks!

    Hey Zenzo, great tip and great video! That particular technique definitely works, as I have done something similar before. I think I saw John do something like this before in one of his old videos. Anyways, you did a great job explaining this technique and rationalizing this method. Thanks for sharing 👍.
