Anyone who keeps cichlids, in particular African cichlids, has had to deal with aggression at some point. For some it was so bad that they stopped keeping fish or switched to a different kind of fish. I've often said that African cichlids are not for everybody. They are stunningly beautiful but must be closely watched because a sudden outburst of aggression can result in the serious injury or death of tankmates.

If you follow my channel you know that I've tried everything. Lower temperature, moving around the decor, putting jerk fish in time outs, heavy feeding, on and on. None of it resulted in a long term result. Well I'm happy to report that I finally have a peaceful tank full of huge African cichlids and in this video I'm going to share with you the one simple tip that worked as a solution for cichlid aggression.

How have you dealt with cichlid aggression? What tips can you share that have worked for you? Please talk about them in the comment section below because we all learn from each other around here.
