Hard To Find!

Introduction: Explore the serene world of the Albino Placidochromis Phenochilus Mdoka, a distinguished cichlid from Lake Malawi, known for its peaceful demeanor and striking appearance, which includes a notable white lip and vibrant body colors.

Appearance and Behavior: This species boasts a large, robust body, growing up to 8-10 inches.

Known for their social nature, they thrive in groups and exhibit peaceful behavior, making them compatible with other non-aggressive fish.

Aquarium Care: A setup that mirrors their natural rocky habitat with ample hiding spots is ideal. They prefer alkaline water conditions with a pH of 7.8-8.6 and temperatures between 76-82°F. Regular water changes and a balanced diet of high-quality flakes, pellets, and live or frozen foods are essential for their well-being.

Breeding: The Mdoka are maternal mouthbrooders. Females carry the fertilized eggs in their mouths until they hatch. Providing a protein-rich diet and ample hiding spaces can encourage breeding behaviors and support the health of fry.
