    Livingstones African Cichlid – Care Guide

    The Livingstones cichlid (Nimbochromis livingstonii) from Lake Malawi is a fascinating ambush predator that “plays dead” — lying motionless on the substrate to lure smaller fish within striking range. Males display a beautiful blue-green metallic sheen with blotch camouflage patterning. A rewarding species for keepers who appreciate intelligent, behavioural fish.

    Temperature 24–28 °C
    pH 7.5–8.5
    Hardness 10–20 dGH
    Min. Tank Size 280 L (75 gal)
    Care Level Intermediate
    Temperament Predatory / Semi-Aggressive
    Diet Piscivore — large cichlid pellets, krill, frozen lance fish, prawn. No small tankmates.
    Compatibility Large Malawi Haplochromis species (Nimbochromis, Electric Blue, Peacocks). Never with small fish.

    Sandy substrate important. Open swimming areas essential. Large protein-rich diet. Weekly 25–30% water changes. Mouthbrooders. Reach up to 25 cm.
