Malawi Haps and Peacocks 101
Our club Vice President, Tony Horos, has been keeping fish since he was in grade school but really got into the hobby in the late 90s. While he has experience with planted and reef setups, his true passion is for cichlids from Africa’s Lake Malawi. In the past 5 years, he has expanded from a few tanks to about 30and has bred over 25 different species/variants of Malawi haps, peacocks and mbuna.
Tony's presentation for the November meeting of the CCA, "Malawi Haps and Peacocks 101" will include a general overview of these striking fish. Topics will include basic requirements/water chemistry, a survey of popular (and easily kept) genera, breeding tips as well as cookie-cutter setups of differing sizes.
Whether you're completely new to Malawi cichlids or an old-timer, this will be a great talk to catch.
