Help: Which type of Cichild is best to raise and breed?

boyien03 · July 27th, 2009

I need help on choosing which type of cichild is best to raise and breed? Color is important too. I have successfully raised convicts, but was hoping to get into a different type of cichild...

what size tank are you looking to breed them in? are you looking for SA cichlids? africans? etc?

Welcome.
Like Shawnie said it depends on tank size what you can have.
