African Tropical Fish
Can you recommend a good little filter chilids for Africa?

I'm about to start a new tropical fish tank chilids Africa. I did my research on fish, but all it takes is finding a small filter that is very cheep (£ 0 - £ 15) and is not to jump on the sand, not the whole tank! Thank you very much higher write back soon

Most African cichlids can be very dirty. But if you want something that is cheap and does not bother me to have some space-tank constructed can simply use a filter ATI Hydro-sponge or other similar mark. They are powered by an air pump, and should be deleted when you change the water every two months. Just look for something that will be of adequate size for your tank. http://www.atisponge.com/Products/HydroSponge/tabid/77/Default.aspx

Cichlid Fish

Taking care of cichlids can be seen that compared to other fish cichlids tend to be quite aggressive. One question Frequently Asked Cichlid is their aggression. Why are they so aggressive? Can I stop their aggression? The answers to these questions can be found by understanding their natural behavior.

Cichlids do not live in an aquarium where everything is supported. Cichlids living in the wild rivers and lakes, where many predators and other fish. They must be struggling to survive. They must be aggressive in obtaining territory, for a mate and defend its thermal plants.

Thus, when seen in the wild and raised in an aquarium they act the same way. The struggle for food, fighting over territory and the fight against getting a partner.

This attack is particularly more obvious when they defend their thermal systems. Cichlid Frys is attacked and eaten by other fish as are so small and vulnerable. So, cichlids need to be aggressive to scare away predators.

Once you understand their natural behavior and instincts, is easier for you to control their aggression. It is necessary to give them a territory, a place for them to breed and feed. If you can, you see that the cichlids are relatively easy to maintain and care.

Cichlids, like most animals, the use of surrounding objects to define their territory. If you have a bare tank, cichlids in the tank is very likely to claim the entire tank as the own and fight with all the other fish. Therefore, more items you have in the tank, the easier it is for the cichlids and mark to define their territory.

Tropical Fish African Cichlids

Many breeders of the fish house fish without basic knowledge on how to create an environment and conditions for their animals. Depending on the species, you should know that the natural habits, not the breeding season, but throughout the day, night, summer or winter also. The most important Temperature Fish Tank properly secured and maintained it as natural as possible.

Because the most common species available in stores fish come from tropical forests is not uncommon for the water temperature rises to 28 ° C during the daytime and drops to 20 ° C overnight, you must understand that temperature is not stable as the fish are looking for. Because the metabolism works faster when temperatures are higher, fish can swim, find food, race, breathing and basically everything they do during the day. Unlike the mid-day light, nights are characterized by sleep and the peaceful atmosphere; course, the only remaining species during the nights that are active for days. It is important to keep the night temperature lower, because the fish need to collect energy.

Unlike water aquariums Sea which require a water temperature stable, freshwater species require different temperatures, due to another reason: the oxygen level in the reservoir. It is well known that oxygen in the water remains cold easier than in water at high temperature. And because you do not want your fish to swim away under the surface all day, you should look to improve water conditions to meet the imaginary quality criteria.

Either the specific examples. If you keep the Siamese fighting fish, water temperature should not exceed 30 ° C and should not be below 20 ° C. The Siamese fighting fish come from tropical Asia. This place is home to the paradise fish, Flower horn (which is not a natural species, which was created in the lab!), Botia species, Gouramis, temperatures etc. Others are required by fish from the North and Central America. Fish such as Red Devil Cichlids Xiphophorus or that more stable conditions, roughly 22 ° C overnight, and about 27 ° C during the day. As we go to South America, there is a similar environment such as Asia, there. Precautions particular must be taken in African cichlids prefer cooler temperatures because they often swim in cold water. In total, at least 20 ° C and a maximum of 26 ° C is welcome.

Although the care of their pets as much as possible, there are times when the temperature should increase because of sick fish. The fish usually become the WSD and the best cure for the disease is increasing the temperatre 30 ° C or sometimes 31 ° C and the addition of sea salt in water.

Another reason for higher temperatures are raised. Most species recur if the temperature exceeds 26 ° C, which indicates adequate nutrition. Tubifex because the larvae of various insects that breed during periods of heat, Federal Republic of Yugoslavia have enough food. On the other hand, there are species such as Corydoras panda reproduced only in colder waters. What was until all the fish you keep, but keep in mind their compatibility, not only in view of aggression, but requires environmental aspects.
