Lamprologus Sexfasiatus Gold Tanganyikan African Cichlids 5cm

Overview: The Lamprologus Sexfasciatus Gold, known for its stunning golden hues and distinctive markings, adds a touch of elegance to any aquarium. Originating from the rocky shores of Lake Tanganyika in Africa, these cichlids showcase mesmerizing behaviors and intricate social dynamics.

Origin: Hailing from the pristine waters of Lake Tanganyika, these cichlids thrive in rocky habitats, utilizing crevices and caves as shelter. Their natural environment influences their behavior and need for suitable tank setups.

Feeding: These omnivorous beauties relish a varied diet consisting of high-quality pellets, flakes, and occasional live or frozen foods like brine shrimp or bloodworms. Providing a diverse diet ensures their health and vibrant coloration.

Tank Mates: Consider housing them with other Tanganyikan cichlids, but be mindful of their territorial nature. Compatible tank mates include peaceful species such as Julidochromis, Neolamprologus, or other non-aggressive cichlids of similar size and temperament.

Aggression: While not overly aggressive, they can be territorial, especially during breeding periods. Adequate hiding spots and a well-structured tank layout help mitigate conflicts among tank inhabitants.

Experience Level: Due to their specific environmental needs and territorial tendencies, these cichlids are best suited for intermediate to experienced aquarists familiar with managing cichlid behavior and maintaining appropriate water conditions.

Water Parameters: Maintain water temperatures between 75-80°F (24-27°C) and a pH level ranging from 7.8 to 8.6. Pristine water quality is crucial, so regular water changes and monitoring ammonia and nitrate levels are essential for their well-being.
