Description
The Aulonocara Kandeense or Blue Orchid Peacock, is an African cichlid found near Kande Island in Lake Malawi in southeastern Africa. This fish needs a hard water, alkaline environment with a high pH of 7.6-8.6, a temperature of 73-82 degrees Fahrenheit and a sandy substrate accented with rocks for protection and to provide for territorial behavior. A minimum tank size of 55 gallons is necessary for growth and breeding.
