So I'm new to cichlids.. This is day #4!! They are exciting to watch, but only from a distance because they are still very shy.
I was given a tank from a friend who basically didn't have time anymore.. Anyways I have a 30g with a bumblebee, Demisoni, Maingano, and a yellow lab fry... (Parents died before I got him).. I'm not 100% sure on the species name, this is just what I got..
My first question is regarding the baby.. He is probably around 3/4 inch. I was wondering if he is getting enough to eat. The other fish (biggest being 4inches) seem to get all the food!
Second question is on the color changing of the Bumblebee.. One minute he will be dark, dark gold almost brown and another minute he will have deep black stripes.. I checked water conditions today and all I found was that the alkalinity is alittle high but that's it!
Anyways thanks!!
