Description

Introduction: Introducing the captivating “Blue Dolphin” fish, also known as the “Moorii Cichlid,” a stunning and graceful species that will add a touch of elegance to any aquarium.

Scientific Name: The “Blue Dolphin” fish is scientifically known as Cyrtocara moorii, a species native to the rocky shores of Lake Malawi in Africa.

Water Quality: To ensure the well-being of the “Blue Dolphin,” replicate its natural habitat with the following water conditions:

  • Temperature: Maintain a temperature between 74°F to 80°F (23°C to 27°C).
  • pH Level: Keep the pH level in the slightly alkaline range of 7.5 to 8.5.
  • GH Level: Aim for a general hardness (GH) between 5 to 15 dGH.
  • KH Level: Maintain a carbonate hardness (KH) between 7 to 10 dKH.

Feeding: The “Blue Dolphin” fish is omnivorous and enjoys a varied diet. Offer high-quality pellets, flakes, and freeze-dried foods along with occasional live or frozen treats like brine shrimp and bloodworms.

Tank Mates: Due to its peaceful nature, the “Blue Dolphin” fish can coexist with other non-aggressive African cichlids and community fish that share its temperament.

Substrates and Tank Decorations: Recreate a rocky environment with sandy substrates to mimic the shores of Lake Malawi. Provide ample caves and hiding spots using rock formations to offer a secure environment for this species.

Suitable Plants: As the “Blue Dolphin” fish is not known for damaging plants, you can add hardy plant species such as Anubias and Java Fern to add natural beauty to the aquarium.

Sexing: Sexing “Blue Dolphin” fish can be challenging as males and females may look similar, especially when young. However, males may develop slightly more elongated dorsal and anal fins.

Breeding: Breeding “Blue Dolphin” fish can be achieved in a well-maintained aquarium with ample hiding spots and proper water conditions. The female will lay eggs in caves or crevices, with both parents participating in guarding the fry.

Maximum Size and Longevity: The “Blue Dolphin” fish can grow up to a size of around 10 inches (25 cm) and has an average lifespan of 8 to 10 years with proper care.

General Information: This species gets its name “Blue Dolphin” due to its elongated snout, resembling that of a dolphin, and the striking blue hues on its body.

A Fun Fact: Male “Blue Dolphin” fish display vibrant electric blue coloration during mating or when they are excited, adding an enchanting spectacle to your aquatic world.

Enrich your aquarium with the allure of the “Blue Dolphin” fish, as its graceful demeanor, stunning colors, and harmonious nature create a captivating aquatic display that will delight both novice and experienced fishkeepers alike.
