Cichlid Newbie

Postby Prostock442 » Tue Jan 31, 2012 10:59 am

I bought 12 African Cichlids about 2 weeks ago. 3 Yellow Lab Cichlids 3 Blue Cobalt Cichlids 3 Orange Peacock Cichlids & 3 Red Top Zebra Cichlids. All fish are juveniles being all of 1" in size or less. Over the course of the two weeks, the 3 Orange Peacock Cichlids all died. All the others seem to be doing fine. Any suggestions? Thanks for any help.

No, it's a well established 55g. I ended up returning the remaining 9 cichlids & getting some different tropical fish. Thanks for your inquiry.
