Hi there! I'm Candy Keane , a cichlid obsessed fish keeper, traveler, and proud mom of two living in San Francisco, CA. My journey into the world of Peacock Cichlids started the way most great passions do — completely by accident. The moment I laid eyes on these breathtaking, jewel-toned fish from Lake Malawi, I was hooked. What began as a simple hobby quickly became a full-blown obsession, and honestly, I have no regrets! Over the years, I've deepened my knowledge of Peacock Cichlids, their behavior, tank requirements, breeding habits, and the incredible variety of species that make them so special. I've kept and cared for multiple species, and every single one has taught me something new.
