Dwarf Cichlids

The cichlids are among the most interesting of all tropical freshwater aquarium fish, and some of them are among the most colourful as well. That is why many beginning aquarium hobbyists are attracted to them and why many long-time aquarists specialize in keeping cichlids exclusively. Although some cichlids are simply too big for owners of only relatively small tanks, it would be a shame for those owners to be deprived of the special pleasures-most especially the fascinating parental behavior that characterizes cichlids in general-that cichlids provide. Solution: keep the smaller cichlid species, the ones called dwarf cichlids in the aquarium trade. This book beautifully outlines the care that dwarf cichlids require and lays out a very sensible program for their keeping, at the same time offering a wide range of full-calor photos of value in their identification. Covering both New World and African species.
