I would like to say…if you lost the heater in your tank such that the water temp gradually got lower, at what point would it become to low for cichlids to survive? How long could they survive at say 50-60 degrees f ?

I would like to say… Can you tell me how you got all the plants to stay? Will this work with African Cichlids? I like the Triangular Layout I know that the babies would like to hide in it. Thanks,
Chuck

@LLOyd It could be the water quality inside the cooler. The temperature should not exceed by 82 degrees Fahrenheit.

I would like to say… you can sometimes distinguish male from female african cichlids by the shape of their anal fin, the females anal fin is rounded and the male is most times pointy, and females ,not always, do have egg spots. The egg spots are for when mouth breeders lay eggs the female will lay the eggs and pick them up in her mouth to incubate them and the male will lay down next to the eggs and when the female trys to pick up the egg spots the male will shoot sperm in her mouth to fertilize the eggs. My fish breed on a regular basis, clean water, varied diet, and steady temperature, you can also raise the temp slightly to encourage them to breed, hope i helped.
