A couple of sites to that contain a wealth of information regarding African cichlids. The first one is BC based, so you might even be able to hook up with some local breeders.

HTH

Cichlid-forum.com is EXCELLENT! the people on the forum are super helpful (like on here :p) and the articles are all very helpful. Probably the single best website for cichlids (esp. african) on the web :)

What is it that you'd like to know? I keep and breed lots of Africans, been at it for ten years. They are great fish, and very hardy when healthy.

i was looking for some basic info re: water quality/parameters, things that would help keep them healthy...

I second MalawiMayhem.com :)

Any idea on what type of cichlids you plan on keeping, i.e., Central / South American, East /West African, etc? When you decide, pop over to my website's link page and you should find some decent reference links there for both continents.
