    Default How Rare Are Victorian Cichlids Becoming ?

    I'm watching a old episode of River Monsters i have never seen. He is in Africa's rift valley and in the episode he is @ lake Victoria . He then tells of how the nile perch are taking over so do the nile perch feed on the victorian cichlids ?? Or am i just over thinking ?

    The nile perch does feed on the small cichlids, decimating many species. My local fish club actually has a program to help preserve endangered/extinct in the wild species from Lake Victoria.

    Here's a list of the ones currently eligible for the program: http://www.hillcountrycichlidclub.com/cares/3.php
