Top 10 Most “Peaceful“ Cichlids

Our Top 10 most peaceful cichlids! We have kept a wide variety of cichlids, and in today’s video, we compiled a list of our current favorites when it comes to the less aggressive species. Most of the cichlids on this list are relatively peaceful, and many will do well in community or planted aquariums. All cichlids have their own personality though, so even the “peaceful“ cichlids in this video can still have a rogue or aggressive individual. A few tips to reduce risk of aggression with any cichlid: proper tank mates, larger tanks with more territory, ideal Male/Female ratios, and avoiding pairs breeding in the tank.
