I was interested in starting a cichid tank and this book was very helpful. fill with good tips and ideas. I would have like more photos. I decided after reading the book that cichids where too hard for be to handle due to the size of tank needed and a small amount of fish one can have. I have a discus tank instead
GREAT BOOK

The book is a little thin but remember dont judge a book by its cover. The pictures are GREAT!!! I have been a cichlid breeder for about 25 years and just recently i went into africans and this was one of my first books. The only problem is that it doesnt elaborate on some things, but its a great book.
A greate book for beginners

This book has a lot of general information about Tanganyikan cichlids and the way to keep them in a home aquarium. The pictures in the book have a special glossy cover, which makes them look very good. It's an excellent 'first book', but someone interested in information about specific cichlid should search for them in another book.
