Product Description
This is the first popular book about Lake Victoria cichlids, and it reports about a species assemblage that is largely new to aquarists and scientists alike. The 173 species discussed constitute a Mbuna-like species assemblage of Lake Victoria cichlids, that was previously believed not to exist! The "new" cichlid assemblage carries a great potential both for biological research and for the aquarium hobby. The purpose of this book is to give a first introduction to this newly discovered fauna, and to make researchers, hobbyists, and conservationists aware of ist riches. Most emphasis is laid upon the presentation of the various species complexes and species, with much new information about distribution, ecology, and behaviour in their natural environment. For this purpose, underwater work using SCUBA was done for the first time in Lake Victoria. High time therefore, to look at Lake Victoria's rock cichlids more carefully.
