Why african cichlids

[Sa1nt]

There are plenty of cichlids from Lake Malawi that grow to 10-16" , there is also a cichlid from Lake Tanganyika that grows to be 36".

There is also a fair amount of CA/SA cichlids that stay in that 6" and below size range.

Yes you are right. Sorry for the mis-information.

For me, its all about the personality. The colors are just a bonus.
