  • I am in charge of breeding and growing the Aulonocara at my LFS (Local Fish Store). This is still, even with the advent of my CZcams channel, one of my main tasks at the shop.
    In this video, I show you how I do it and give you some tips to help with your African Cichlid Breeding Projects
    Enjoy the video!

    I have only seen about a handful (even if that,) of hobbyists/Breeders/Tradespeople. Who are not talking about Rift lake cichlids, constantly in hybrids or made up common names.
    Common names are fine, as long as it's used on a legitimate fish you can still find in the wild, if you know what I mean?

    • @QuebecCichlides
      @QuebecCichlides  Před 5 lety

      Hi Andy,
      You're not doing anything wrong. I think they got Peacocks and Mbunas confused.
      You can mix singles of peacocks but Mbunas need to be in groups of 3-4.
      If you mixed 3 of a same kind of peacock, one will dominate the others but it won't be as dramatic as some people would make it seem.
      Check out this video for more information on peacocks :

    • @QuebecCichlides

      When I have too many bubbles, it's usually because the tank is not completely filled up.
      If the FX5 has bubbles coming out of the output, it's because something is wrong with your filter.
