That was a cool show, it was more about the evolution and how cichlids evolve faster then any living creatures. Went through how they evolved into mouth browsers to protect their young and some of their rivalry with catfish.

Yes...it went into breeding and how the mbuna evolved....that one where the male bulit the snail shells into his lil castle was nice....I think I might have the one fish that they said played dead to catch its prey.....I have to do a lil research though
