Molly Allan –
Received the three small cichlids in good condition. They are active and seem healthy in my 10-gallon tank. The temperature and pH levels I maintain match the recommended range. Easy to care for and they’ve adapted well so far.
Kylie Scott –
The fish arrived quickly and are active in the tank. I kept the water temperature between 75-80F and pH around 6.5. They enjoy hiding in the plants and logs. A good choice for a small community tank.

Perfect for a beginner. The size range is ideal for a small aquarium. They are peaceful and don’t stress other fish. Water parameters stayed stable after setting up the tank.
