Aquatic Revolution - 55 gallon South American. Tuesday, June 3, 2008. sharing some zuchinni with his fellow Bristlenose pleco.

A relatively peaceful species, the Buffalohead cichlid is a suitable for a community tank containing fish of similar size and temperament. This species is very curious and intelligent, each fish having an amusing personality. Endemic to fast flowing rivers, S. casuarius prefers an aquarium with a plenty of current. The aquarium should also feature a a fair amount of rockwork. A 20 gallon tank would be a suitable size for a pair of these fish.

A pair can be kept in a 10 gallon given they are the only fish in the tank. Its not recommended to keep them in anything smaller than a 10 gallon. Indo-Pacific Ocean, ranging from the Eastern Indian Ocean, to the Western Pacific. Going as far North as Japan. Females reach a maximum size around 3.

Here is a collection of journals that I run on my tanks, fish, and other projects. Periodically I will update these journals with information and log any significant events that occur, or any observations that i come across. Enjoy! Up side your buffalohead.
