Cichlids are mainly freshwater fish living in African and South, Central American and ranging as far north as Texas. You can find them in other places too such as Iran, Australia and India.
Cichlids have been increasing in popularly as aquarium fish. They are well suited for the fish tank and can be easy fed with store bought fish foods. They breed readily in captivity.
Among the most popular aquarium cichlid are the angelfish, oscar, dicus and the convict cichlid. Use caution when putting them with other fish as they may eat the smaller ones.
Ciclids can interbreed with closely related species. One example is the blood parrot cichlid. It has a beak shaped mouth, abnormal spine and sometimes is missing the caudal fin.
Some call this the Frankenstein monster of the fish world, while others like and want them in their aquariums. Of course inbreeding can cause the cichlid to be unhealthy, lose fertility and can cause physical abnormalities.

- There is hardly any freshwater fish that is as colorful as the African cichilds. This has made the african cichlids one of the most popular aquarium fish. These fish that are found in the lakes of Eastern Africa, are known to be quite hardy, once the pH level and mineral requirements of their environment is met.
The requirements of African cichlids gives scope to set a aquarium cichlid that could rival a large number of saltwater aquariums in color and decoration. These fish are very territorial. Hence, the first concern while deciding upon the fish tank is to ensure that it is a large one with an efficient filtration system. Consider 55 gallon tank as the minimal size.
