Sof****er Cichlids

[Samuel Warren]

I need a suggestion on some Cichlids that are easy to care for, may produce
fry, and who thrive in my soft water. I taking all 76 3 month old platy fry
to the LFS for a credit. I have 4 community tanks, so I thought perhaps I
would try some Cichlids. They will start off in a 10 gallon tank and work
their way up to the larger ones.

Apistogrammas have a nice range of choices, typical cichlid behaviour and
most are quite small.
http://www.thekrib.com/Apisto/ has a nice list, as well as a list of
other South American dwarfs and West African Dwarfs.

Hi Samuel, I'm new at cichlid breeding too so I chose Apistogramma
Borellii. They are amongst the easier to keep and breed dwarf
cichlids. I've been keeping a web page with some pictures and other
details. If you're up here in my corner (Seattle area), I could start
you off with some of my soon-to-be juvies. They are still quite small
now, but some will be large enough to start out on their own soon.

enjoy your adventure,
steve
