This blog originates from experiments to produce accurate images of actual fish species, many of which went horribly wrong! Maybe we should call it 'mutant AI fish experiments'...?

As anyone who has tangled with AI to produce specific blogs images or text will know, in its current form and without the correct prompting AI doesn't always quite produce what you need.

The pH scale is the measurement of the acidity or alkalinity of water. The pH scale runs from 0 (extremely acidic) to 14 (extremely alkaline). The mid point, 7, is known as 'neutral'. pH is generally cited to one decimal place (e.g. pH 6.5, pH 7.3, etc)

The Pearlscale cichlid is an omnivore and should accept dry foods without any problem. Feed them a high-quality cichlid pellet as a staple and vary often with frozen and live foods. They will especially appreciate brine shrimp.

If you’re interested in keeping Oscar cichlids, it’s important to note that they require a moderate level of care and a minimum tank size of 55 gallons. They are omnivores and require a varied diet of both plant and animal matter.

The Malawi Blue Dolphin is a peaceful species and should not be kept with boisterous cichlid species such as mbuna, but it will intimidate small fish with its sheer size. It is a shoaling species and should be maintained in a group.

The Frontosa cichlid is a carnivore and feeds mainly on shellfish and smaller fish. There are different types of Frontosa cichlids, such as the Red Frontosa cichlid and the Blue Zaire Frontosa.

In this blog we will be exploring a little-known fish fact that you may not be aware of. Today, we explore fish memory, specifically whether they can actually recognise their relatives, and whether fish have the capacity to learn.

The order Perciformes contains the cichlids and the anabantoids. The anabantoids contains all gourami's and Siamese fighting fish. Among the well-known members of this group are also perch and darters (Percidae), sea bass and groupers.

Parrot Cichlids are a beautiful, albeit controversial, freshwater cichlid. These fish are a hybrid fish species that was first created in Taiwan around 1986. The exact species used to create the Blood Parrot Cichlid are not known, but many think that the Redhead Cichlid (Paraneetroplus synspilus) and Midas Cichlid (Amphilophus citrinellus) are the parent species.
