Chocolate Cichlid | Care Guide & Species Profile

Today’s video is a care guide on the Chocolate Cichlid (Hypselecara temporalis). Also called the Emerald cichlid, the Chocolate cichlid is an awesome South American cichlid to keep. They are relatively peaceful for a large cichlid, and they can be tank mates with a variety of cichlids and other fish. They have great personality and color, and I would definitely recommend them - as long as you have a large enough tank size!
