Product information
Malawi cichlid color mix - Cichlidae spec.
The cichlids need despite their rather small size of c.a 12-14 cm a rather large aquarium from c.a 300 liters. The males are extremely territorial and therefore need more space. We recommend to keep always 1 male and 2-3 females in the tank, the substrate should be fine sand, the color does not matter. - Garnelio

Description

Malawi Cichlid Color Mix - Cichlidae spec.

Basically a Malawi tank should be as large as possible. This is due to the large space requirements of the fish, they cannot be kept as pairs. 
The females among the mouthbrooders only take care of the brood. The males, on the other hand, are constantly on the move, looking for new females with which to breed. You should always keep Malawi cichlids as follows ,, per male at least 2 females " 

Here you get a randomly selected color form depending on availability.

They are relatively low maintenance in terms of food, the chichlids can be fed with live food as well as frozen food. Of course they also like to be fed with Natureholic Chichfeed, they love it!
There should not be a lack of hiding places with hardscape or clay tubes. Planting in your tank is always recommended, however the Thick Skins do not depend on it, so it is not necessary. The pH should be kept between 7.0 and 8.5.

The breeding of the fish is relatively easy and could already be observed a few times in aquariums. The females are mouth brooders and take over the part of the brood care the male takes over the precinct care.

Hallo Tobias, vielen Dank für deine Frage! Das kommt ganz auf die Art an, im Schnitt aber um die 6cm. 

Question: "Wie ist das Verhältnis Männchen und Weibchen bei diesem Mix, wenn z.B. 6 bestellt werden?"

Hallo Manfred, vielen Dank für deine Frage! Dadurch dass es sein kann, dass du hier einen Mix aus 6 verschiedenen Arten erhältst wenn du 6 Tiere bestellst können wir hier leider nicht auf die Geschlechtsverteilung achten.

Question: "Um wieviel Fische handelt es sich?"
