They don’t “get from the lakes in Africa”.
They are bred in the US.
AIR FREIGHT!
are you seriously asking this question? uh, people take them from the lakes in africa, and bring them back here and breed them, duh! think much?
i think its by feeding the one in our proper town and i got 5cichlids they are not so expensive 4 their life extension.
cichlids are kind of angry fish
Specifically?
Well, Diver would go to the lake, net the fish, then bring it to the processing company where they test/pack/legalize to send it here because some fish are illegal to send to the US. Then people here just breed them to reduce cost.
