⭐ Large Haplochromis & Peacock Cichlid ⭐

Peacock cichlids (Aulonocara) and Haplochromis cichlids can be kept together in a tank, but it depends on the type of Haplochromis and the tank environment, These fish are territorial and can be aggressive, especially towards other species. However, they are generally considered less aggressive than other Malawi cichlids. Dragon Blood Peacock Cichlids are considered moderately aggressive, but not as aggressive as larger cichlids. Peacock and Haplochromis cichlids do well in tanks with higher pH and harder water, and in the same temperature range.

⭐ Small Mixed Malawi Cichlid ⭐

When it comes to colour, Malawi cichlids often rival marine fish. They come in two basic groups – Mbuna (the rock fish) and the Haps (short for Haplochromines which includes a bit of a mix of more placid fish) which tend to be less persistently territorial. These are fairly arbitrary distinctions, especially as many of the Peacocks seen today tend to be hybrids involving the placid Aulonocara with the more aggressive mbuna. This gives an attitude which still tends to be on the milder side of things. Mbuna are all about s*x and violence. Males vigorously defend territories from which they court females and expel rivals, making them hard company in small aquaria. To dilute aggression, successful mbuna communities tend to be crowded and bustling places where constant distractions prevent conflicts from getting too personal. Not all species are equally aggressive, and a bit of research can help determine which combinations work best. Avoid mixing similar-looking species, as this not only helps avoid conflict, it can also help minimise the risk of hybridisation. Unlike their rock dwelling cousins, the Haps tend to prefer more open layouts. Ancestral Peacocks are fishes that tend to inhabit fairly substantial voids and caves between rocks, where their facial sensory pits (their genus name translates as ‘flute face’ just in case you’re ever in a pub quiz where that’s relevant) enable them to hunt invertebrates in the substrate. They’re fishes that enjoy a bit of peace and quiet. A few of the less aggressive mbuna can be added with minimal friction in large tanks, providing there’s plenty of room and they’re sufficiently outnumbered. A large tank equipped with big filters is the starting point to creating this type of community and as you can imagine, largescale water changes are a must. This is fish keeping on a grand scale and if you’re in a soft water area you’ll want to use buffers to ensure the hard, alkaline conditions these fish require. Short of that, it’s just a case of stopping them from harassing one another excessively and that’s easier in the crowded conditions of a busy community. A less commonly seen method is to dedicate a large tank to a single male with a harem of females, but most keepers prefer the riot of colour approach.

⭐ Aqua Paddock ⭐ New Plecostomus ⭐

⭐ L031 Peppermint Pleco ⭐

The Peppermint Plec is known only from the Rio Xingu, a south-eastern tributary of the Amazon River. Here the water flows quickly over rocky substrates where it is forced past boulders at speed and is saturated with oxygen. Such water courses are surrounded with marginal vegetation, and an aufwuchs-rich biofilm covers the rocky substrate, which these fish enjoy grazing upon. Provide a spacious, mature aquarium with plenty of shady hiding places amongst tangles of bogwood, rocky caves, PVC pipes, and robust planting.

🔸£49.99 Each 🔸

⭐ L398 Tankei Tiger Pleco ⭐

Panaqolus tankei L398 is one of a few Panaqolus l-numbers allowed for export from Brazil. This is fortunate, since it comes from Rio Xingu, a river threatened by damming. Perhaps not the most striking member of it's genus, L398 is still a cool fish with it's dark bands against a pale orange body. Hopefully we will be able to breed this species to ensure it's future in the hobby.

⭐ Aqua Paddock ⭐ Weekly Special ⭐ ⭐ (Archie) A+ Grade Flowerhorn ⭐ Flowerhorn cichlids are ornamental aquariumfish noted for their vivid colors and the distinctively shaped heads for which they are named. Their head protuberance is formally called anuchal hump. Like blood parrot cichlids, they are hybrids that exist in the wild only because of their release. Flowerhorns first emerged for sale on the aquarium market in Malaysia in the late 1990s and soon became popular in many countries in Asia. They are commonly kept by hobbyists in the US, Asia, and Europe. Numerous cast-off flowerhorns have been released to the wild, especially in Singapore and Malaysia. ⭐ £79.99 Each ⭐ Paddock Farm West Lane Dalton on Tees Darlington DL2 2PT Telephone:- 01325 378286
