I get my water tested about every week at LFS so I'll have to have it checked. But no, she doesn't seem to do better. Hopefully whatever it is will fix itself. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Hi all I'm starting to become nervous about one of my African cichlids. It is red/orange zebra and all has been well for almost a month of having her but she just started pooping clear feces that is very stringy. Her eyes also have became bulgy and just has weird anxiety type of attacks. Is not...

I think it looks great and you should stick with what you think looks great :)

Alright cool. I have the red and blue zebras ones already I really like them. Not to be picky I just want each cichlid to be different color. So yellow lab will be one for sure and will ask the LFS what two other good mbunas would be. Thank you guys Sent from my SCH-I535 using Aquarium Advice...

Maybe a yellow lab and some other cichlids? What are some you suggest to add into the tank along with the yellow lab? Sent from my SCH-I535 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

You guys seem very knowledgeable upon these cichlids so I have another question if you don't mind. I am looking to add another fish or two or so here in the next couple days as long as my water is healthy. I understand that these cichlids are meant to be their species only but yet I have seen...

Actually I'm noticing he is just losing color in general. I feed him tetracolor cichlid pellets with tank temperature at almost 80 degrees. With two other cichlids but I don't ever see any signs of aggression between them all. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

It seems like my orange cichlid is pretty red. I don't think I noticed it before so I don't think it's normal. Just curious if it may have an issue or it is normal internal coloring. Its the reddish color around his gills but inside his skin. Sent from my SCH-I535 using Aquarium Advice mobile app

Isnt the auratus the more aggressive cichlid? My cichlids don't seem to have any issues at all but almost everything I've read shows they should be aggressive toward my other two. Just confused. Is it because he's a juvenile? Sent from my SCH-I535 using Aquarium Advice mobile app
