    That tank is sick. I used to keep a Vieja Argentae and a red head Vieja and they were beautiful.

    It has always amazed me, that no matter how large the tank is and well stocked, that the fish always seem to recognize that a new fish has been added and have to check the new fish out. Great video!

      @@CichlidBros I need help. I used ChemiPure elite in my 20 gallon after I vacuumed and did a water change. After 2days the water is still cloudy. Can I use Purigen and remove the elite in the filter or use both. I need your help and how do I put it in HOB filter

      It's impossible to get anything into a tank of cichlids without them noticing! They're so inquisitive and intelligent. 😀

    • @TheJake76
      @TheJake76 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      There's actually not any south american cichlids in this tank these are all central/north American cichlids and can actually be much more aggressive than African rift lake cichlids. One of the saving graces of this tank is having the heavy stock and such a large footprint makes it so one single fish doesn't get picked on which also works for most Africans as well.

I use 5 gallon buckets as my filter socks and run filter floss in a reactor. But I have so many suspended particles in the water it looks Cloudy. The only think I have left to try is a pool sand filter filled with glass beads to polish the water. Your water looks amazing!

I have a 120 and it uses all my hot water just to do a 50 percent water change , when i filled the tank it took me 4 hours to heat enough water that it would be filled with water roughly the right temperature so how does one do such massive changes? Do you use cold water or have some type of water container somewhere?😂

    I read somewhere that the cichlids can accidentally ingest small pebbles is that true? Should I avoid pea sized substrate?

    Crazy to do 50% water changes. I would tolerate to do 10%. What's the reason for it? High nitrates?

    • @CichlidBros
      @CichlidBros  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Yes. It’s different for every aquarium based on stocking, bioload, and live plants. Having big cichlids with no live plants = higher water change volume

    In my 20+ years of keeping cichlids I can say that a white substrate makes my fisher brighter and pop, and a dark substrate tones down their colors. I’ve tried both ways and I’ll never have dark substrate again. To each their own and beauty is in the eye of the beholder

    This man speaks the truth, it IS a mistake to use light color sand with these types of fish.

    So the water change is 300 gallons per week??? I have a 180 gallon and my wife complains about our water usage when I do changes and I do a 50% change ever 2 weeks.
