10 Incredible Cichlid Tank Setups (Peacocks & Hap Cichlids)
This video shows off 10 beautiful African cichlid tank setups, specifically peacocks & hap cichlids from Lake Malawi. A few of these African cichlid tanks are our own, but we also mixed in a few cichlid tanks from tours in the past, as well as a few special guests that are joining us today to discuss African cichlids.
When looking at Lake Malawi African cichlids, there are three main categories: mbuna, peacocks, and haps. Mbuna typically require more rockwork and decor in the tank, while peacocks and haps utilize open water much more and swim very actively in an aquarium. They also get pretty large, so large tanks are required for these African cichlids. We'll highlight some more cool cichlid tank setups in our next video, which will focus more on mbuna cichlids.
