    Thanks Ben. I just made my first online fish purchase after watching quite a few videos. Yours are the most informative. I'm diving deep but 5 to 6 fish at a time.

      Joe Munoz It was complete chaos that immediately settled back down after I returned the rock to the right side. A real lesson in how aggression can be related to tank set up.
      Thanks for watching and commenting!

      @shadowfire246 7 років тому

      Ben Ochart you should have gotten it on video lol I've always found it interesting when my fish via for dominance and there isn't a whole lot of video showing aggression between cichlids that I've found at least. Makes it difficult for a beginner to figure out if it's bad enough that there's a real problem or not.

    Ben, he's going to be gorgeous! From all of the different Red Empress I've had, the Boadzulu Red Empress is the one with the most deepest red coverage. Although some of my others are very red their bellies were a slight yellow. Some were red with a florescent pink tint. Try searching Boadzulu Red Empress on YT there's a few videos. I've also posted a picture of mine on your Facebook group. I'm the one who started the discussion of asking the group to show me their Red Empress pics. As always enjoyed your vid.

    Great video man! Just got a red empress . But not sure if it’s a red empress or not the colors are very different. It’s wild though. Posted a video and it got over 100k views !! But no one commented on the video to let me know if it was really an empress. I think it is a hybrid but not sure

    really colorful and not so aggressive

    • @jcsh2o944
      @jcsh2o944 7 років тому +1

      Carlos Montes De Oca I've found Sunshine Cichlids and Blue Dolphins to be on the calmer side. I'm sure there are others but those 2 really stick out in my mind.
