Midas Cichlids : Care and Breeding


Midas Cichlids : Care and Breeding



Midas Cichlids are known by the scientific name Amphilophus citrinellus but have previously been classified as Cichlasoma citrinellum, Heros citrinellus, Heros basilaris, Cichlasoma granadense and Erythrichthus citrinellus. The coloring varies significantly for this species, probably because of the ease with which they are bred. Many are grey with black horizontal banding. Yellow, orange and gold …


Ecsenius midas Midas Blenny


Ecsenius midas Midas Blenny


$29.99


Midas Blennies are usually mostly shades of yellow, but may have other colors present like blue or mauve. They may also exhibit bars during times of stress. The tail is forked, and gives the blenny an appearance similar to Fangblennies. The Midas Blenny can be territorial, but is usually peaceful toward other fish. They can be fearless, and are bold feeders even around much larger fish. However, they do need plenty of hiding places to feel comfortable. Midas Blennies are ideal for reef aquariums or fish only aquariums. They are easy to feed and accept most frozen, flake, and live foods.

Ecsenius midas Golden Midas Blenny - Medium


Ecsenius midas Golden Midas Blenny – Medium


$59.99


The Golden Midas Blenny is an African color variation of the regular Midas Blenny ( Ecsenius midas , also known as the Persian Blenny). This form has an even more brilliant golden color than other Midas Blennies and is fairly uncommon. Midas Blennies are peaceful but generally shy fish. They may become more active and hover in the water column when comfortable, but they spend much of their time peering out of holes or caves. They will not bother most other fish but occassionally pick at very similar gobies, blennies, firefish or dartfish. This species does not eat much algae, feeding primarily on zooplankton. Many different species and varieties of blennies enter the aquarium trade regularly. Some of the more commonly encountered genuses are Atrosalarias (the Sailfin Blennies), Blenniella (Rockskipper or Combtooth Blennies), Ecsenius (often small and flat-faced), Meiacanthus (the notorious fangtooth blennies), and Salarias (the popular algae-eating Lawnmower Blennies). Many blennies may eat some algae growing in the aquarium like the nuisance hair algae, or ornamental macroalgae like Caulerpa. Blennies will also accept many other types of food like pellets, frozen formulas, brine shrimp and others. Blennies can be kept with most other community tankmates like damsels, clownfish and angels but they may become territorial with time and will defend against trespassers. Blennies typically do not tolerate others of the same species except in very large aquariums with enough territory to accommodate their need for space. They are safe for reef aquariums and will not harm most invertebrates, with the possible exception of small crustaceans like Sexy Shrimp. They spend most of the time on or around the bottom, or perching in the rockwork of the aquarium.

Blood Parrot - Small


Blood Parrot – Small


$9.99


Though long thought to be a hybrid between two cichlid species, the fish known commonly as “Parrot Cichlids”, “Blood Parrots”, or “King Kong Parrots” are cultivated deformities of the cichlid Amphilophus citrinellus , commonly known as the Midas Cichlid. These fish have short, squat bodies and their mouths do not close completely. Parrots are bred to produce their unique body shape in much the same way goldfish are bred to produce the varieties like Oranda’s and Ryukin’s. Just as Parrots are selectively bred for their body shape, they can also be bred for color. The “normal” colors can range from white or yellow to orange (the true “Blood Parrots” to deep red (often referred to as “purple”). Some black mottling can also occur. Some variations in body shape can also produce Parrots with a “lumpier” body as seen in the “King Kong Parrots” or tail-less fish as in the “Heart Parrots”. As cichlids, Parrots may become territorial when established though they are generally far less aggressive than the natural Midas Cichlid. Their body shape makes them less mobile and aggressive and the Parrots should not be kept with very aggressive tankmates or with very small or docile tankmates and may prey on some invertebrates like shrimp. Suitable tankmates would be fish with a similar temperament like Geophagus , Severums, catfish and similar fish. They can be fed a varied diet of pellets and frozen foods and formulas.
