Julidochromis and other Tanganyikan cichlids. Like other rift lake cichlids, it’s important to offer tons of rocks and caves for plenty of spaces to establish and maintain territory.

Smaller cichlids like Julidochromis species, shell dwellers, and others can add interest to any African cichlid tank, so long as they are properly provided with shelters. Like any other smaller cichlid (juveniles and just small species), they need tight crevasses, cracks, and caves to tuck into to be safe and feel secure. Rubble and shell piles can provide nice places especially.

Some of the smaller African cichlids like Julidochromis species might not be as flashy as large zebras and kenyiis, but they can be very handsome indeed.
