15-03-2006 22:10 by Kate	I am fairly new to keeping Cichlids (as you may have gathered!!) and would like to know if there are any good books or other sources of information on keeping Malawi Cichlids. I do have a couple of south American Cichlids as well but that was due to the fish shop mislabelling the first lot of fish i bought for my larger tank. Any Help will be appreciated. Thanks
15-03-2006 22:59 by wayne	what cichlids have you got at the moment ? what size tank ? what were you hoping for a community tank>?
15-03-2006 23:19 by Ray	Hello Kate,you could try malawimayhem.com and malawikeepers.com,there are lots of other sites and you can always ask here.
15-03-2006 23:30 by Kate	At the moment I have a 200l tank with a pair of red empress, 1 yellow lab, 1 female alounacara (i think) and a very pretty blue strippy but i havent got a clue what it is. Will post a picture when i have worked out how to download from the camera!!!!!!!!!! Could be a while lol. In my smaller tank (100l) I have Juvenile red empresses, alounacaras, and peach ones, and 1 yellow lab. Looking after the juvies and growing them on for a neighbour. They be going in a bigger tank when they older

16-03-2006 13:07 by MC	If you enjoy reading books then Steph suggetion is a good one, I find books are also a faster way of identifying species. If its basic info you want, then as Ray suggests, there's a wealth of it on the web, just "goggle" Malawi Chiclids With either method you will find some of the info contradictory but thats easy to work through, the more you read. If you do this first & understand what is required, it will avoid you making the common mistakes that a lot of us have done, and a lot still do.
