- Unboxing some awesome new cichlids today for the 180 gallon South American cichlid tank. I'm very excited for the new cichlids, and the big fish I picked up!
These Uaru cichlids are going to fit in great with the other South American cichlids in this aquarium. They get big, but also relatively peaceful cichlid, so I can't wait to watch them grow in this tank. Uaru amphiacanthoides are South American cichlids, and I'll be doing more updates on them very soon!

Definitely a good choice for the tank. 🐠. Those. 👀 eyes. Pop. ✅👋
Thanks 👍
Uaru- one of my favorite cichlids!!! They are beautiful 😍
Troy , I’ve commented about 3 times that you should get some uaru in there , that’s what I keep with my red heads and tapajos , awesome to see you put them in your tank ! You’ll highly enjoy enjoy , my four are super personable , and huge about 10 inches long . They are awesome fish
Thanks for the suggestion! definitely had been thinking about them for awhile!
@@CichlidBros and as I more than imagine you already know they are omnivores but putting a higher plant base in their diet is most beneficial , my largest one got to ten inches before ever laying eggs , and my smaller pair were only about 4 inches when they started , I just randomly started feeding them the omega one seaweed strips ( I know it’s a salt water food but I figured since it’s dried out it won’t be as salty ) and the black tear drop shapes started getting super dark and the top and bottom fins turned super blue , I guess their mating dress but neither pair started to ever look as good until I put the sea weed into their diet also , my geos and gymnogeos and severums love it too I just chop it up in little strips and let it soak in a little bit of tank water and then they go to town on it , easy cheap way to make sure they get a butt load of plant based nutrient
Uaru has the Best personality ❤
So glad you got more than one uaru they do way better in groups!
They are my favourite cichlid I always have to have a tank of uaru !
That’s awesome! Pumped to have them 👍🏻
One of my favorite tanks 🤩‼️ Uaru definitely in my top 5 cichlids 🐟, great choice for that community ‼️
Thank you! Loving them so far!
Awesome! they are hands down some of my favorite fish!
Awesome fish bro! Love that tank. I have a South American tank as well. Wish I had more of a selection in my area. Went to 5 shops in the last few days and nothing caught my eye unfortunately.
Love the aquarium and speices in it
They are beautiful, and got me thinking to perhaps ad these guys to my tank.
Thanks! Would recommend 👍🏻
Beautiful cichlids Uaru
Chocolate cichlids would also make a nice addition
Congratulations! I love Uaru, I bought one back in January, it was 1" long and now 10 months later he's over 7" they grow super fast. They have a great personality, mine eats from my fingers and bites me. Gorgeous fish
Thank you!
That’s amazing! I just picked up my Uaru two days ago. thinking I need to go back to the store and get 2 more before they’re gone.
Nice one! fills out the tank nicely and almost like you have added a small school. Love the idea you mentioned of a Central American tank too. That would add a new dimension to your collection. Put in some (formerly known as Ellioti), Vieja Melanura, Salvini, JD, even a couple convicts. I know you've had trouble with a Salvini before but I've had some that are pretty calm.
uaru are awesome! I was trying to think of what the fish could be at the begging and I guessed right!
Hey Cichlids Bros. You're channel is blowing up, and it's about time. You guys rock!
They’re beautiful ❤ something new for me Thanks Troy ❤ 🐠 👍
Thanks Jerry!
Really nice new additions, Troy!!!! Sorry to hear you’ve had some losses lately. Always tough.
Thank you!
Sorry to hear you lost some fish, especially the green Severum, glad you finally got some Uaru and I hope some day you’ll get another Chocolate “Big Foot”
Thank you! One day I definitely will!
Beautiful fish!
Thanks!
Troy,
Wow I haven’t heard of them before they look pretty and with the blacks and reds so cute how they pop. So sorry you lost some fish. I hate when that happens even if it’s small fish. But the cichlids it hurts more because of the personality and the cost. Unfortunately when we keep pets it happens and nothing lives forever. So glad you found what you were looking for bro. ❤🎉
Thank you, I appreciate it!
Woo hoo I have 3 of them and 2 of them paired up and are breeding. I love the Uaru cichlids
Awesome!
🔥🔥🔥 one of the best new world cichlids
Nice addition to the 180!
Thanks!
Great addition🔥Top 3 Fish in the Hobby for me! Amazing personality and just a beautiful specie in my opinion. Good luck with them Troy, you will definitely enjoy them 👍🏼
I love the uaru I've got a few of them. There one of my favorites.
Very nice
As soon as i saw the bag i knew they were uaru's!! beautiful cool fish those fish are rare! Ive never seen them in person ! Great Addition to the tank!
Excited to have them! Thanks for watching! 👊🏻👊🏻
Stunning fish love uaru i have a group of panda uaru love em
Pandas are awesome! 🐼
Omg! I clicked so fast 🎉 Happy Halloween 🎃
Also love the red eyes
Schöne Tiere sind da dazu gekommen! 😃
Didnt' know this fish until i've seen MD's video some weeks ago, I guess they are not very popular (never seen one in my area) but in my eyes they are very beautiful, nice addition
Like my male black acara. Been looking for a female for a bit now. Not readily available. Really like the new addition to your tank. Might have to get me one now too!
So cool, now I'm going look for some,love the three you got,
Awesome!
Gz, I was one who was suggesting Uaru in one of your videos when you asked what to add if I recall! Really nice that you went for this option. My fav fish definitely! Havent had oscars tho
Kept some years ago.. amazing fish, been itching to get a group to grow out and breed but currently have no space for anything new! Fishkeeper problems. BTW watching them grow and change their patterns is highly recommended for a future project! That's the best park also they grow pretty quick
Beautiful fish wow
Thanks!
Awesome video
Nice 🔥
Of of my favorites was a Malawi Eye Biter
Love the uaru. They're so cute, and their eyes are beautiful. I hope they're happy in their awesome new home!
Where's Big Foot? Please tell me he went to supervise another tank for a while or maybe substitute teach some science classes.
Uaru is my favourite Chichld fish
Love it
Bellissimo,ne avevo anch'io 2 uno di ciclidi africani e una di discus stendker 😊
Jealous!!!🤬. Very nice bro!!
Thanks! 😀
Amazing ❤ fish❤
Thanks!
@@CichlidBros no need bro your soo best video
I have 3 Uaru and they are very nice fish. However, if you have any bully fish in the tank, they may eventually get tired of them and take them out. They can bite big deep holes in fish. I lost a mature male Geo. balzani and a 7" Satanoperca daemon. Both fish picked at the Uaru until they finally got hit. I think it was the smaller female that did it. They are usually very chill and will interact with you. I would never get rid of them.
Hopefully you can get another turquoise to add back in that tank or a Blue Severum
I see you didn't quarantine are you not worried about disease or do you trust your supplier enough not to worry about it. They are really good looking fish nice addition to the tank.
Yes I explained in the video. I normally would quarantine
I watched again and hear you mention it. I missed it first time around my bad.
Just a thought do you think it could be the sand and the drift wood that causes the random bacterial infection? I use to have a similar problem when I hand sand and wood in my tank. After I took it out I stoped loosing fish. Just a thought tho maybe my wood was getting old
do you think a partially submerge dracaena sanderiana (lucky bamboo) is a good idea in cichlids tank?
Awesome Fish!!!! I want to get a tank just like yours. What light do you have on top of that 180?
Thank you!! It’s the Aquarium Co-Op LED Light: geni.us/D896w
Hello been watching you for a few days now, I'm in the process of building my first tank and I wanted to start with the Discus fish but I found it to be too expensive for me, so I decided to go with the angelfish based on your vids, my question is that; do I go with the angels or do you recommend another similar fish?
Angels are a great choice! Peaceful community with plants would like nice. Thanks for watching the channel!
how is your 90 gallon discus tank doing. i have 6 discus and 8 angels in my 110 gallon
Would love to know what you feed them.
Mostly spirulina and krill flakes, along with cichlid pellets. Links in description of what I use
hey Troy, do you run UV on your tanks? I personally have found it very effective preventing/mitigating fish loss from diseases.
Nope, I haven’t before. I’ve considered though
I really want uaru but don't think my plants like the idea as much as I do
Haha yep, they are some plant destroyers like severums
Are air pumps needed 24x7?
I mostly use wavemakers for surface agitation
I think I prefer "drab" looking fish
Same haha
How big is your cat? It looks huge!
Haha Rambo is a beast!
What dont you get another true parrot?
No quarantine?
I explained in the video.
Sorry I must have missed it when I stepped away.
Yep missed it the first time. Sorry bro and thx for the reply.
What's the name of the fish sitting on table? :D
Lol, Rambo
He's so hot😍 I don't even have fish and I've been watching these videos for like 2 hours lol 😨
That cat's loitering with malicious intent.
My Oscar is my least favorite. Awesome personality, but they are ugly fish IMO! My favorite is my Jack Dempsey and Severums. Breaking down my Tanganyikan tank and will be finding homes for my last few fish in it. I have a breeding pair of Gold Calvus that are full grown and about 31/2 years old. Really hard letting them go they have made me a ton of fry!
Excellent video.I have a 125 gallon with 3 Red Devils and a placo. How many more fish can I add and what kind do you think?
Did you have 1 uaru already or is that the chocolate cichlid ?
