- Hey all,
Today I wanted to do a care guide on a fish I have been keeping for a while now and one that I really enjoy.
The Cyprichomis Leptosoma aka Sardine Cichlid is a really cool Lake Tanganyikan fish that is a mid to top dweller in the aquarium.
These fish have great personality and are a maternal mouthbrooder.
Packed with colour and lots of fun, definitely a great fish to try out.
Hope you enjoy!

Great spotlight mate
Thanks a lot!
Cool fish bro
suprised you got leleupi to mix with those cyprichromis my leleupi chased my jumbo tri colors non stop
Fish all have different personalities, i guess luck of the draw
Says the won’t be available at big box stores. Well some can. I actually work at one and got my self a group of 6 but have 5 now. Beautiful fish
Well thats good but very unusual
Hello from 🇬🇧. Interesting video. Thank you.
I've just come by BOTH those fish & wish to get some.
Question:
Hi. I have a DWARF cichlid aquarium. It recently occurred to me that there are a lot of SMALL Cichlids that are NOT dwarf (particularly Lake Tanjanyikan fish), I'm well aware there are plenty of large fish from thst area.
What would you say is the DIFFERENCE between a SMALL Cichlid & a DWARF Chichlid? They can be the same size yet some are not classed as dwarf. Thoughts?
Thanks.
@acrawley5128 Thanks. Only just seen your reply.
Having thought about it, surely the SMALL Cichlids are just small but the DWARF cichlids have a larger version of the same fish. What do you think? 🇬🇧
Soy de Puerto Rico donde puedo conseguir esos peses
My new pair still learning how to do it /sigh. my old breeding pair died they left me with 3 fries still growing out.
Best of luck!
Would these be ok mixed in with Comps and Fronts or would that make the tank be a bit busy for them?!
Fronts would eat them i reckon. Comps may be ok
Fronts eat them as normal food in the wild
hiya
gday
Cichlids , they do have beautiful colors but the agresive behavior I don't like. Tks for Sharing
These ones are really very peaceful, maybe the most peaceful cichlid.
How long does it take from 7 fish
2 days tops in my experience.
@@BlakesAquatics thank you I got a pearl scale but I don’t know how much to feed him can u help me
Feed him only as much as he can eat in 1 to 2 mins
5 to 6 pellets is usually plenty
@@BlakesAquatics is flakes only ok or should I feed him other foods?
Hi quick question. Bought cyps a year ago and I have half but what I realized is they need more feedings than just once a day. Once I did that it’s been very successful and no fish died for six months. But during the successful six months I know at least one fish goes for food every time but spits out food too. It’s not fat of course and not too thin and it’s been with me for a year I feed them new life spectrum the very small sized pellets. .5 mm. Is this normal behavior.? Is it bc they have food in their mouths already ? The other cyps are bigger and fatter and I don’t know that do spit food out either. Just trying to do my best when I receive my next shipment from you. In addition I ordered brine shrimp eggs a week ago. Will try that too but anything I should or shouldn’t do?
