- This video shows off 10 beautiful African cichlid tank setups, specifically peacocks & hap cichlids from Lake Malawi. A few of these African cichlid tanks are our own, but we also mixed in a few cichlid tanks from tours in the past, as well as a few special guests that are joining us today to discuss African cichlids.
When looking at Lake Malawi African cichlids, there are three main categories: mbuna, peacocks, and haps. Mbuna typically require more rockwork and decor in the tank, while peacocks and haps utilize open water much more and swim very actively in an aquarium. They also get pretty large, so large tanks are required for these African cichlids. We'll highlight some more cool cichlid tank setups in our next video, which will focus more on mbuna cichlids.

Thank you for including me in this awesome collab. Great tanks in this video!
Excellent video! Lots of great fishkeepers and aquariums. I especially liked the tank at 6:25...but I may be biased. 😅
That 500 gallon in wall aquarium is amazing 👍
It was awesome to film in person!
Awesome format, love to collaboration with other channels. I’d love to do an African Cichlid tank one day! Beautiful tanks
Thanks for watching! And I'd recommend giving it a try!
Fantastic tour of all the tanks. Awesome camera work too. I didn't realize some of those fish were so huge. Peace. TEAM TROY!
Thank you, Sandy!

Hey, I love watching your videos!. Keep up the good work!.👍🏼 Oh, and btw I think your Red Shoulder Peacock is actually a Blue Dragonblood Peacock.? I think… Lol
Thank you! They are very similar but mines def a red shoulder. Came from imperial tropicals and they have a great line of them!
@@CichlidBros Oh, that’s right. I totally forgot that you ordered them from Imperial Tropicals. Sorry!. It’s definitely a legit red shoulder then..
With a few Peacock cichlids and a dolphin Hap, can I put in a Frontosa 75 gallon tank ?
Do a top 10 subscriber african cichlid tanks edition❤
How does maintenance work on a very deep tank like the 500g in the store. Just vacuum?
Blue peacock and bllue dolphin very atttractive for me,i just thnking if i buy those cichlid, is that compatible to include with big oscars and giant paco?thanks if someone answer.
Beautiful tanks……..Im more a fan of keeping rocks so I put some mbuna in the tank to accentuate my rocks…..lol
Can you keep a banded leoporinus with peacock cichlids? Or not a good idea?
Hey can someone please tell me what cichlid that is at 7.00?
tf hell is that in alecs tank , an ob Malawi hawk ?
Tropica plants showed a video of plants you can add to mbuna tanks, you should take a look at it for your African cichlid tanks.
Trust me, we’ve tried those and it doesn’t work out well for the plants
Off topic but have you ever had bubbles come up from your substrate?
Have you seen the Chiclid tanks at the Ohio Fish rescue?
Not in person
First❤
What type of cichlid is the one at 1:20 sec (name)
Taiwan reef
No the little grey one that shows up right after the tiawan. With the yellow blaze
Can I put the Haps and peacocks in a 55g?
Bro did u actually just steal footage from another CZcamsrs channel 😂 dude that’s messed up I know ur guys fish tanks alredy but Ben ochart u stole his video
Are you serious? Lol. They collabed and sent us video for this. What do you not understand? 🤦🏻♂️
