Tropical - Fish - Pictures .com

This is a tropical fish site for all tropical fish enthusiasts from beginner to expert. It has some nice tropical fish pictures and will hopefully have something of interest for all freshwater and marine fish keepers. These tropical fish pages provide some information about some of my favourite fish, along with tropical fish pictures of them. I have kept fish for many years now, ranging from community to marine. Over this period I have been drawn towards catfish, and the cichlids, which I must confess, through there antics have become my favourites. I now keep African and American cichlids, along with some catfish and plecs.

Tanganyikan tropheus cichlid tropical fish tank setup
Tanganyikan Tropheus cichlids can be very aggressive towards each other, particularly the males. They require a lots of open space for swimming and are often best kept in species tanks in groups of 10 - 12+, with a higher proportion of females to males; for some species it is best to keep one male and all the rest females. Ocean or sea rock is good because it acts as a natural buffer for the ph, along with a coral sand or coral gravel substrate again helping to buffer the ph.
