Join us Saturday, February 6, 2027 for our monthly meeting and auction.John Krepper presents: Tanganyikan Rock Dwellers
Lake Tanganyika’s rock-dwelling cichlids are an interesting group of cichlids with specialized body shapes, and distinct ecological niches.
This presentation covers these fish in the lake, their social hierarchies and cave-spawning habits. Also covered will be practical considerations for keeping them in your own aquarium.
About the speaker
I first started keeping fish at age 12 (1968) and was quickly introduced to the Louisville Tropical Fish Fanciers and participated as a junior member. I moved from high fin green Mollies to Rift Lake cichlids in a short time and then settled in Lake Tanganyika in the early 1970’s and have keep them ever since with the exception of a break from 1994 to 2005.
While in Santa Barbara California I founded the Santa Barbara Aquarium Society in 1979 and in 1985 returned to Louisville I rejoined the LTFF club and was later elected president served for a few years and was the active president when LTFF sponsored the 1992 ACA convention. I have been a member of the ACA during my years in the hobby and regularly attend the ACA convention.
Over the years of keeping Lake Tanganyika cichlids I have photographed my fish as well as my friend’s fish.
