Product information "Snail cichlid primer"
Snail cichlids
are small cichlids from Lake Tanganyika that rely on the presence of empty snail shells for survival. These dwarf cichlids are ideal aquarium fish due to their unusual behaviour and the ease with which they can be kept and bred. Another advantage is their small size, which for most species ranges from just four to six centimetres, meaning they require comparatively little space and can be kept and bred in a species-appropriate manner even in modern small aquariums. In the thirty-odd years since they were first imported, these interesting and attractive little fish have secured a firm place in the world of aquatics. This guide by the well-known author Wolfgang Staeck provides an overview of the most popular species, describing their lifestyle, social behaviour, brood care and requirements for the aquarium.
