General Information:
The Blue
Johanni Cichlid, Melanochromis johanni, comes from the shallow waters
of Lake Malawi, Africa. The male is gray/black with blue-gray longitudinal
markings with the typical spots on the anal fin, and is considerably larger than
the female. The female is a dull golden color with rounded fins and no spots.
A large aquarium with
plenty of caves and hiding places is ideal for these fish. An aragonite-based
substrate is recommended in order to maintain the necessary high pH and
alkalinity.
For best results in
spawning, the males should be kept with at least three females. The female will
spawn on a flat rock, and will take the unfertilized eggs into her mouth and
will follow closely behind the male until he releases the sperm to fertilize the
eggs. The female will then incubate the eggs for approximately three weeks
before releasing the fry. The fry can then be fed newly hatched brine shrimp,
daphnia, or crushed flake food.
The Blue Johanni needs to
be fed vegetable rich foods in the form of flake food, dried seaweed and algae.
Brine shrimp, small fish and other meaty foods should only be fed periodically,
as their main diet should consist of vegetable matter.

 As
all know our general supplier for aquarium fish LiveAquaria.com and Drs.
Foster & Smith (same company) ended their online sales business, due to
state online sales tax issues. Thus links on fish for sale
no longer work as 02/22/10.
We are changing our tropical fish
suppliers now to "Aquarium-Club MEMBERS ONLY", so please stop back,
because we will have more tank raised fish shortly,
15 years of selling tropical fish online and
safely shipping fish and supplies to thousands of satisfied customers, without any
complaints!!!
