2 Weeks old blue baby African Cichlid

There are many types of African Cichlid fish, I have four kind of different African Cichlids in my aquarium which are Electric Yellow Cichlid, Albino Cichlid, Kenyi Cichlid and Cobalt Blue Cichlid as you can see in my previous post. The one that gave birth previously was the Cobalt Blue one, however the mate is a Kenyi Cichlid, so I don't know what or how the babies will be when they are mature. It's been two weeks and more since I stripped the baby fishes from their mother's mouth. Now they can eat grinded pellet or fish food already and have grown approximately 1.5cm long now.

Some of the baby fishes have started to become blue

They usually gang up in the corner when they are scared or shocked

Normally they are very active and aggresive

The air bubbles carries more oxygen to the water

Maximum filter rate to give higher water flow to let more oxygen dissolve in the water  and to push the small fishes to swim so they can grow faster

Some of the babies are turning blue now! ^^

Don't forget to put the black filter pad on the filter tube to prevent your baby fish being sucked into the filter
