Hi you all!
I am new

here and new for africans..
I have a question about the jewel cichlid: what water parameters

are best for them to breed, pH, EC AND TDS?
Thanks!

Hi there, and first of

all, Welcome to this great web site and to the world of african cichlids, this particular cichlid

its a very poweful one, despite its small size, one thing you should know, is that among all

african cichlids, this one comes from small lagoons and rivers, so the ph must be 7.5 or less,

contrary with the rest of africans that comes from the rift lakes, congratulations with your new

fish and good luck.
