ciclasoman.bsky.social @ciclasoman.bsky.social · 05/03/2026No two Paratilapia have the same spot pattern, like finger prints, the size, color and distribution of blotches is unique to the individual. The pattern changes with age. Paratilapia is the least understood genus in the cichlid world, posing a steep learning curve but so rewarding to see fully grown 032

ciclasoman.bsky.social @ciclasoman.bsky.social · 10/02/2026That’s really awful and so advanced in that poor fish. One would think that large aquaria stay on top of providing the most appropriate and balanced food to their fish 000

ciclasoman.bsky.social @ciclasoman.bsky.social · 06/01/2026Ptychochromis insolitus is a nearly extinct cichlid from Madagascar. Its appearance is reminiscent of prehistoric fish, itself having not evolved an immune system capable of mounting immunity against ichthyophthirius. Adult males develop a beautiful blue body sheen with bright red fins. 030
