Mixed Blue Mbuna (Various species)

The Mixed Blue Mbuna is a stunning group of Mbuna cichlids known for their vibrant blue hues and energetic behaviour. These fish are active and thrive in well-planted, rocky tanks that mimic their natural Lake Malawi habitat. A fantastic choice for cichlid enthusiasts looking for variety and colour.

Minimum Tank Requirements:

• Tank Size: 100 litres or more
• Temperature: 24-28°C
• pH: 7.5-8.5

Tankmates:
These Mbuna cichlids can be kept with other similar-sized, semi-aggressive fish. Ideal tankmates include other Mbuna species, robust barbs, and larger peaceful fish. Avoid smaller or slower species that may get bullied.

Diet:
Omnivorous. They will accept high-quality cichlid pellets, flakes, and occasional live or frozen foods like brine shrimp, bloodworms, and daphnia.

Care Tips:
Mixed Blue Mbunas thrive in rocky tanks with plenty of hiding spots and a slightly alkaline water environment. Good filtration is a must, and it’s best to keep them in schools to help reduce aggression.
