About the Book
This volume covers husbandry and reproductive methods of a group of cichlid commonly grouped as 'haplochromines'. This diverse group of fish is found in tropical Africa. Many species are extinct in the wild as loss of habitat, introduced species and pollution are some of the problems facing these animals in their native waters.



Breeding methods and species profiles are included in hopes that the responsible aquarist will take an active role in cichlid survival.
