Red Jewel Cichlid for sale near me
**Name:** Red Jewel Cichlid
**Max Size:** The Red Jewel Cichlid typically reaches a size of around 5 to 6 inches (12 to 15 centimeters) in length.
**Water Parameters:** These cichlids prefer slightly alkaline water with a pH range of 7.0-8.5 and a temperature range of 75-81Β°F (24-27Β°C).
**Diet:** Red Jewel Cichlids are omnivorous and will readily accept high-quality pellets or flakes. They also appreciate a varied diet that includes live or frozen foods like brine shrimp, bloodworms, and small insects.
**Temperament:** Red Jewel Cichlids are known for their territorial behavior, especially when breeding. They can be aggressive, so it's essential to provide them with adequate space and hiding spots to minimize conflicts.
**Tank Setup:** A well-decorated aquarium with rocks and caves for potential breeding sites is ideal. These cichlids also appreciate live plants, but be prepared for them to rearrange the tank decor to suit their preferences. A sandy substrate is recommended.
**Compatibility:** Red Jewel Cichlids should be kept with other robust and semi-aggressive fish species in a species-specific or larger aquarium. Avoid housing them with fish that have long fins, as they may be nipped.
**Behavior:** These cichlids are known for their vibrant red coloration and striking appearance. They are territorial by nature, especially during the breeding season, and may display impressive courtship and spawning behaviors.
**Fun Fact:** The Red Jewel Cichlid, scientifically known as Hemichromis lifalili, is a popular choice among cichlid enthusiasts due to its vibrant coloration and interesting behavior. While they can be territorial, many aquarists find their interactions and breeding displays fascinating to observe.
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.
