Lamprologus Occelatus Blue Tanganyikan African Cichlids 3cm

“Discover the striking beauty of Lamprologus Occelatus Blue Tanganyikan African Cichlids, prized for their vibrant hues and captivating behavior. Originating from the rocky shores of Lake Tanganyika in Africa, these cichlids boast a mesmerizing blend of electric blue and contrasting black markings, adding an elegant touch to any aquarium.

Feeding these stunning cichlids is a joy, as they readily accept a varied diet including high-quality flakes, pellets, and occasional live or frozen foods, showcasing their active and inquisitive nature during feeding times.

In a community setting, they thrive alongside peaceful Tanganyikan species such as shell-dwellers and smaller peaceful cichlids, appreciating the rocky landscape with plenty of hiding spots. While they can exhibit territorial behavior, especially during breeding, their aggression is generally mild compared to larger cichlid species, making them suitable for intermediate aquarists who are familiar with managing cichlid interactions.

To ensure their well-being, maintain a pH of 7.8-9.0 and a temperature range of 75-80°F (24-27°C) along with moderately hard water conditions. Their smaller size and manageable aggression make Lamprologus Occelatus Blue Tanganyikan African Cichlids an engaging addition to an aquarist’s collection, offering an opportunity to observe the charm and dynamics of these captivating creatures.”
