**Name:** Yellow Benga Peacock Cichlid
**Max Size:** Yellow Benga Peacock Cichlids typically grow to a size of about 5 to 6 inches (12.7 to 15.24 centimeters).
**Water Parameters:** They thrive in water conditions with a pH level ranging from 7.8 to 8.6 and a temperature range of 76-82Β°F (24-28Β°C). These parameters simulate their natural habitat in Lake Malawi.
**Diet:** Yellow Benga Peacock Cichlids are omnivorous and accept high-quality cichlid pellets or flakes as their primary diet. Supplement their diet with live or frozen foods like brine shrimp, bloodworms, and spirulina-based foods to enhance their coloration.
**Temperament:** They are generally mild-mannered for African cichlids, but males can become territorial, especially during breeding. Adequate hiding places and space in the aquarium can help reduce aggression.
**Tank Setup:** Provide a tank with plenty of rocky caves and crevices, as well as open swimming areas. These cichlids appreciate a sandy substrate. Decorate the tank with rocks and driftwood to mimic their natural habitat.
**Compatibility:** Yellow Benga Peacock Cichlids can coexist with other African cichlid species of similar size and temperament, particularly those from Lake Malawi. However, it's crucial to research and select tankmates carefully to avoid conflicts.
**Behavior:** These cichlids are known for their vibrant yellow coloration and social behavior. Males often display their colors to attract females and establish territories. They are active swimmers and benefit from a spacious aquarium.
**Fun Fact:** The Yellow Benga Peacock Cichlid is admired for its bright yellow coloration, which adds a burst of color to freshwater aquariums. Its striking appearance makes it a sought-after choice among cichlid enthusiasts.
Perhaps the best store on island to get freshwater fish. They have a huge variety, including higher end freshwater fish (discus, puffers, flowerhorns , oddballs, ect) Iβve stocked a few tanks with their fish. They quarantine well and keep it real on how their fish are doing in shop.

Had a great experience here. I was looking for a unicorn/alicorn betta and spoke with the owner, Josh, about it. I ended up using his fish importing services to import a fish from Jakarta, and he brought in a few more white opaque or unicorn type half moon bettas too, to add to the variety in store. I got a sneak peak of the store while it was shut down for one week for a proper quarantine of its new fish. The owner knows his fish and keeps them healthy. A very different experience from a Petco or PetSmart! A Petco employee even recommended I go here for more unique betta fish. Note that they carry other types of fish too, plus Aquatic plants and some aquarium equipment. Pictured are some of the giant bettas, the alicorn betta, and i believe a beautiful ram.

The owner, Josh, is not just knowledgeable about the fish, but also plants and tank issues. I am new to fish tanks and he has been extremely helpful in answering my questions and offering suggestions to make my experience easier. Parking is a bit tricky, but certainly worth it.

They have rare plants you can't find at most places. Got lucky we got a few; my husband is happy. This is one of his favorite places. They get pretty busy, so be patient. The staff are very helpful.
