Rocio octofasciatum "Rio Lacanjah" F0 and Thorichthys meeki "Rio Candelaria" F1.
Enjoy!

Re: our Mexican cichlid tank
That is a REALLY nice tank....very relaxing and laid back for a cichlid tank.
The videography was also very nice. Sometimes when you watch a video of someone's tank, they have a background of loud, distracting music. This was so nicely done!

Re: our Mexican cichlid tank
Your aquarium is amazing! I wish I had the room to set up a cichlid tank like that. I have always loved the look of the Central American/Mexican Vieja species. Vieja argentea would look great in your tank. Anyways, thanks for sharing. If you have any more videos or photos please share!

Re: our Mexican cichlid tank
Really lovely fish and aquarium. About what size are your fish (or your largest fish to give me a little bit of scale). Is it difficult for you to obtain North/South American fish?
Re: our Mexican cichlid tank
The length of our largest fish (exCichlasoma pearsei, male) is about 40cm.
Most of the other fish (Chuco intermedium, Amphilophus macracanthus and Rocio octofasciatum)
will almost reach a length of 30cm.
Some of them will reach a length of 17cm (Thorichtys meeki)
