Cichlasoma salvini

Common name: Salvini Cichlid

Origin: Central America (primarily from Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua)

Optimal living conditions: 24 - 30 °C temperature
6.5 - 7.5 pH
150 l+ sized aquarium

Adult fish size: 15 - 20 cm

Diet: Feed a varied diet of high-quality pellets, flakes, and live or frozen foods like brine shrimp, bloodworms, and earthworms. Salvini Cichlids are omnivores but prefer a diet rich in protein, such as small fish, insects, and worms, with some plant matter as well.

Tankmates: Semi-aggressive, so best kept with other larger, robust species that can handle their territorial nature. They can be aggressive, especially during breeding, so it's essential to provide ample space and hiding spots. Avoid keeping them with small or peaceful fish.
