Keyhole Cichlid Care - Species Profile

Aquarium Keyhole Cichlid care starts with tank setup. This fish is very docile and can’t be kept with other more aggressive cichlids. It may even be the nicest cichlid In the hobby. Try to keep it with docile cichlids and community fish. For the most part these fish are extremely peaceful. I find that the only time they become aggressive towards other fish in tank mates is when they’re trying to breed. You can also say that for almost every other Cichlid in the Aquarium hobby. Tank Mates - A couple of examples of suitable take Meetze for the keyhole Cichlid would be Severum cichlids, angelfish cichlids, Silver Dollar fish, and Acara cichlids. All these fish share the same trait of being fairly docile fish and easy to keep other fish with. You have to know though that these are cichlids. This means that when they try to breed their behavior is going to completely change and they are going to protect their babies with their life most likely. People mistake that behavior yes sir usual behavior and that’s not the case. It’s usually only when breeding behavior is occurring.
