“Blue Dolphin”
No ka ʻohana Cichlidae ka Blue Dolphin cichlid, ka inoa ʻepekema ʻo Cyrtocara moorii. Loaʻa ka inoa o ka iʻa ma muli o ka loaʻa ʻana o kahi hump occipital ma ke poʻo a me kahi waha elongated, e like me ke ʻano o ka dolphin. Hōʻike pū ka etymology o ka genus Cyrtocara i kēia hiʻohiʻona morphological: ʻo nā huaʻōlelo "cyrtos" a me "kara" ma ka ʻōlelo Helene ʻo ia ka "bulging" a me ka "maka".

Description
Hiki i nā kāne ke lōʻihi a hiki i 20 cm. ʻOi aku ka liʻiliʻi o nā wahine - 16-17 cm. He ʻulaʻula ke kino o ka iʻa. Ma muli o ke ʻano kikoʻī kikoʻī, hiki ke loaʻa nā kaha ʻeleʻele kū pololei a i ʻole nā ʻano kikoʻī ʻole ma nā ʻaoʻao.
ʻAʻole ʻulaʻula ka kala o ka palai a ʻoi aku ka nui o ka hina hina. Hoʻomaka e ʻike ʻia nā ʻulaʻula polū i ka wā e hiki ai i ka nui o 4 cm.
ai
Ma ko lākou wahi noho maoli, ua hoʻomohala ka iʻa i kahi hoʻolālā hana ʻai ʻokoʻa. Hele pū lākou me nā cichlids nui e hānai ana ma ke kānana ʻana i ke one mai lalo e ʻimi ai i nā invertebrates liʻiliʻi (insect larvae, crustaceans, worms, etc.). ʻO nā mea i ʻai ʻole ʻia e hele i ka Blue Dolphin.
I loko o kahi aquarium home, hoʻololi ka hoʻolālā hānai, e ʻai ka iʻa i nā meaʻai i loaʻa, no ka laʻana, nā meaʻai maloʻo maloʻo kaulana i ke ʻano o nā flakes a me nā granules, a me daphnia, bloodworms, brine shrimp, etc.
Mālama a mālama
Loaʻa i ka Lake Malawi kahi hui hydrochemical paʻa me ka nui o ka paʻakikī (dGH) a me nā waiwai pH alkaline. Pono e hana hou ʻia nā kūlana like i loko o kahi aquarium home.
ʻO ka hoʻonohonoho ʻana he mea ʻole. E nānā ka iʻa maoli ma waena o nā puʻu pōhaku a puni ka ʻāpana o ka pahu a me ke one one. He koho maikaʻi nā mea hoʻonaninani limestone no ka mea e hoʻonui lākou i ka paʻakikī carbonate a me ka paʻa pH. ʻAʻole pono ka noho ʻana o nā mea kanu wai.
Hoʻoholo nui ʻia ka mālama ʻana i kahi aquarium e ka loaʻa ʻana o nā mea i hoʻokomo ʻia. Eia nō naʻe, pono nā kaʻina hana i kēlā me kēia hihia - ʻo ia ka hoʻololi ʻana i kēlā me kēia pule o ka hapa o ka wai me ka wai hou a me ka wehe ʻana i nā ʻōpala organik i hōʻiliʻili ʻia (nā koena hānai, excrement).
ʻO ke ʻano a me ke kūlike
ʻO kahi ʻano cichlids ʻano maluhia, hiki ke mālama iā lākou me nā ʻelele ʻē aʻe o ka Lake Nyasa, e like me ka Utaka a me Aulonocara cichlids a me nā iʻa ʻē aʻe o ka nui like e hiki ke noho i kahi ʻano alkaline. I mea e pale aku ai i ka hoʻokūkū intraspecific nui loa i ka palena palena o ka aquarium, makemake ʻia e mālama i kahi hui pūʻulu me hoʻokahi kāne a me kekahi mau wahine.
Hanau / Hanau
Hiki i ka i'a ke oo i ke kino ma ka 10-12 knm. Ma lalo o nā kūlana maikaʻi, hoʻomaka ka spawning i nā manawa he nui i ka makahiki. Hiki ke hoʻoholo ʻia ka hoʻokokoke ʻana o ka wā hānau e nā ʻano hana o ke kāne, e hoʻomaka ana e hoʻomākaukau i kahi no ka spawning. Hiki iā ia ke hoʻokuʻu ʻelua (puka), a e hoʻomaʻemaʻe i ka ʻili o nā pōhaku pālahalaha mai ka ʻili.
Ma hope o ka hoʻopalau pōkole, hoʻomoe ka wahine i mau kakini hua melemele oval. Ma hope o ka fertilization, loaʻa koke nā hua i loko o ka waha o ka wahine, kahi e noho ai no ka manawa incubation holoʻokoʻa, ʻo ia ka 18-21 mau lā.
Nā maʻi iʻa
Ma nā kūlana maikaʻi, ʻaʻole kū mai nā pilikia olakino. ʻO ke kumu nui o nā maʻi,ʻo ia ka maikaʻiʻole o ka wai, kahi e hoʻonāukiuki ai i nā maʻi likeʻole o kaʻili, keʻano o nā parasites, a me nā mea'ē aʻe.
